But the 'just a bit' became several paragraphs and was on track for becoming a full-blown article...without mention of the movie. No surprise there. So I've decided to just talk just a bit about the movie here.
She is too fond of books, it has turned her brain.
~Louisa May AlcottI can totally relate to that quote! Books like Little Women tend to make us stop and take a deeper look at the way we view ourselves and the world around us. Books have deeply impacted my sense of right and wrong, taken me on exciting adventures to new lands, and given me insight into the way others think that is profoundly different than my own way of thinking. Reading has shown me glimpses of characters who portrayed such traits as valor or courage or chivalry.
But enough about books for now...
You can check back later to read the article on my love of books and how it all began and where it has taken me.
Also, next week I will have a review of the movie on the blog...so if you haven't made up your mind to see it, be sure to check back here to see if it sounds like your cup of tea.

You are entered! Yay! I think when you see the movie you will want to go back and read the book! Also...you can see the 1994 Version(not a modern retelling but closer to the book) with Wynona Ryder to get a feel for the book.

ReplyDeleteI haven't read the book but I saw the 1994 movie with Winona Ryder.
ReplyDeleteI somehow missed the Winona Ryder version. My daughter and I are getting together tonight to watch that one. She loved it!
DeleteThanks for stopping by!!

I have not read the book, but I used to watch the 1994 movie with my mother often. Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteHi Noah,
DeleteThanks for stopping by. I used to watch movies with my mother too. Now I watch them with my daughter. We'll be watching the 1994 version with my daughter tonight.
She loved that version.
I noticed that you are not listed on rafflecopter as having entered a comment. You need to sign into the rafflecopter with either your email or through facebook to enter the contest. Be sure to do that.
You are entered! Apparently you either went back and entered or rafflecopter was slow in showing your entry. Either way...good luck and blessings!
DeleteThis is one of my favorites. PBS just did a wonderful version. I am a little sceptical of the modernization of this wonderful classic but I am willing to give it a try. Can’t wait to read your review.
ReplyDeleteI read the book years ago but I haven't seen the movie.
ReplyDeleteI read the book so long ago, I barely remember it. So I've been digging and doing a little research on it to tweak my memory. Sad...I must re-read soon.
DeleteI hope that you go see the movie in theaters on the 28th!
blessings!
I have read the book!
ReplyDeleteMe too...but I barely remember it. I read it so so long ago. I must re-read it soon. If you see the movie(good luck with the contest), let me know how you think it compares to the book(other than the fact that it is a modern take on the book).
Deleteblessings!
I have read the book a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteHi Shelly,
DeleteI'm so happy that you visited my site! I read it so long ago I don't remember the details. I do love this modern retelling. I hope you get a chance to go see it! Good luck.
blessings!
