“She almost never did anything like this, but there was no point in getting up. She didn’t want to run into Les at the Memorial Day parade, she couldn’t do any work on the Shelby, and she was not about to open up the yarn store the way Momma did every year, hosting a little sidewalk sit-and-stitch while the parade passed them by. She turned off her phone because the knitters of Last Chance were upset that she’d blown off this tradition. She didn’t want to explain to anyone that this was Momma’s ...tradition. Not hers. So she stayed in bed and consumed an entire package of Oreo cookies while reading Little Women. Molly’s frame of mind suited the book. Jo March, the book’s heroine, valiantly battles for her independence through the first half of the book. And from Molly’s viewpoint, the novel would have been perfect if the author had just stopped right there. But no, Louisa May Alcott had to write part 2, which chronicles Jo’s slow, inevitable slide into marriage and domesticity.MoreLessRead More Read Less
