About this listen

Little Women by Louisa May Alcott, set in the 19th century follows the lives of four sisters, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March as they live, learn, love, and grow as young pilgrims and blossom into fine little women.

Based on the author's childhood, Little Women is one of the most beloved stories in American literature. It continues to touch listeners both young and old. Alcott takes you on a prolific journey which will make your heart swell, your soul laugh, and your heart ache as we experience the lives of the March sisters as they endure their lessons, scrapes, castles in the air, their romances, and more.

Good story but made dull by the narrator. Worth a listen if you can get past this issue.

Dull narrator!

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I can't get past the first chapter. Narrator is truly awful. I will read the book myself instead.

Awful narration, very robotic and annoying

I was transported back to my youth by this wonderful adaptation of a favourite from my youth. The characters are as real and compelling as they were to me when read in print so many years ago; this time however, with the added bonus of the excellent narration of Andrea Emmes the story was brought vividly to life.

Ms. Emmes does an excellent job with the many characters. I particularly liked her portrayal of the Tom-boyish Jo March and the flighty, rather silly, Amy. For all lovers of this American Classic I highly recommend this audio version.

I received a free review copy for my honest opinion of it.

Occasionally rushed reading leaves you guessing who is talking when. You get used to it after a while but some brief pauses for impact, clarity and character changes would've improved this reading

Rushed reading
