Review of 'Good Wives' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

I don't know why the Little Women series is still popular. The writing isn't particularly enjoyable and the story is boring. The morals are also very old-fashioned. I didn't even like it for the depiction of the living conditions and obligations of the time as it didn't teach me much. There's not a lot to learn except that most people were poor and that women were expected to serve their husbands. And that's nothing new, is it?

I only kept reading because I wanted to watch the film adaption.
