We dive into something wholesome with the March sisters in Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. This is an instant favorite for both Jordan and Emily so they swoon over the details of both the book and the movie. We have unpopular opinions about Amy and Jo’s characters, have strong opinions about who could play Laurie, and revel in the righteousness of feminine anger shown by Marmie.
Episode Drink: Lemonade
Instructions
Take those lemons that life gave you and squeeze them for all the juice they’re worth. Dilute your troubles with water and sweeten as much as you can.
Our Drinking Game for this Story
Take a drink:
Everytime Jo is writing
Everytime Laurie is obviously in love with Jo
Everytime Beth is playing the piano
Everytime the girls play pretend
Everytime you want to punch Amy
Finish your drink when you find out that you actually understand Amy
