Whatever I had lost in Little Men previously came back for me from the original Little Women feel for this novel.
Now let me immediately start off by saying that there are very many things in here that you have to take with a grain of understanding with this book being written in 1886 (ish) because there are things in here that did not age well. You will find racism and sexism notes at a few points so as a reader please be aware though I really do not feel was meant to cause any additional disgrace and meant more as a sign of the times and views of people growing up within the period.

With that out of the way, I felt like this was such a kindled homeliness similar to what you will find in Little Women and when reading them very close together you can feel like the author was not giving her all in Little Men when in comparison to how amazing this book came out to be   (as I mentioned).  

You take away with you all these small little lessons just like a grandmother would tell you and it makes you almost crave for a simpler time. I still did not enjoy the religion notes throughout the book, but again I think that was just how the author and the norm were at the time of writing so I will not overly fault that.

In the end this was such a great closure to the series and it made me feel a little bittersweet to see the end of these wonderful characters. Dan totally made me think of Legends Of The Fall; and while reading I wanted very much to attend a play or two. Just the feeling that was put into these cute little moments felt so real and wholesome. I feel like I am better after reading these classics as "books are always good company if you have the right sort."
