Synopsis:
The book club is about to get a makeover….
Even if Megan would rather be at the mall, Cassidy is late for hockey practice, Emma’s already read every book in existence, and Jess is missing her mother too much to care, the new book club is scheduled to meet every month.
But what begins as a mom-imposed ritual of reading Little Women soon helps four unlikely friends navigate the drama of middle school. From stolen journals, to secret crushes, to a fashion-fiasco first dance, the girls are up to their Wellie boots in drama. They can’t help but wonder: What would Jo March do?
Review:
I had previously read book 3 of this series, and it was so sweet to start it again from the beginning. I absolutely loved seeing how all of the girls, many with different life priorities, come together once their moms start a book club. It was great to see how everyone has different problems in life, and how they could relate to the characters of the classic tale Little Women. I loved seeing how the girls’ relationships blossom and how they learn to rely/stand up for themselves and each other.
If you’re old enough to remember Wishbone, this will give you that same warm fuzzy feeling, in book form! This book also comes with a little book club question guide, in case you want to use it for your own book club!
