About this listen

 The final novel chronicling the adventures and misadventures of the March family, Jo's Boys is entertaining, surprising, and an overall joy to listen to.

Set 10 years after Little Men, Jo's Boys revisits Plumfield, the New England school still presided over by Jo and her husband, Professor Bhaer. Jo's Boys — including sailor Emil, promising musician Nat, and rebellious Dan — are grown. Jo remains at the center of this tale, holding her boys fast through shipwreck and storm, disappointment...and even murder.

I absolutely loved Little women, Good Wives and Little Men and consider them timeless classics. However I don’t find Jo’s Boys of the same calibre, and rather than being a feel good story like the others, it is in fact rather tragic. Particularly the ending wasn’t very happy and i felt it reflected the age of the book and a time of depression.

Not as good as the others in the series
