Just like younger me, I’m still appalled reading that Amy burned Jo’s book as a revenge for not being taken to see a play with older kids. Adolescents did not want to babysit an immature 12-year-old who acts all of 9 or 10. Amy’s actions are petty and vindictive at the age when it shows your character pretty well. I’m on Jo’s side here, and Amy is a little jerk.

I assume Beth either dies from the consequences of rheumatic heart disease or a common Victorian affliction of being a virtuous saint of female persuasion.
Meanwhile, Jo’s annoyingly abrasive free spirit falls victim to pious sanctimonious moralization, purposefully orchestrated to induce my eye rolling, and I want to read her sensationalist “immoral” stories.
Meanwhile still, Amy gets her princess life 🙄

Maybe there will come a moment when Amy stops annoying the living daylights out of me. Maybe, although I doubt it.

Here we go. Hello, buddy read! Let’s see whether I loathe this book again or whether with age comes wisdom 🤔

I wholeheartedly agree! 12 is old enough to know not to burn someone else's work.

Good Lord, she burned her sister's manuscript? Jo becomes a writer, right? Or was it just a book? Either way, that is way out of line.
Yes, she burned the book Jo was writing. Little brat.
Hahaha! It shows that you don't have sisters, Natty. :DYou know, from my old days at fandom flame wars, I noticed that readers/watchers that don't have siblings of the same gender tend to react more appalled and judge harsher the immature things siblings do within a sibling dynamic context. Not just women, men too. Men with brothers are more indulgent towards "boy will be boy" silly things, etc.
Not that I'm on Amy's side here, but meh . . . worse petty things happen in a family. :D
