Considering Little Women is infinitely boring and immensely overrated I can't see why you hoped for something more, OP.

Really? It's that bad? I always thought it would be one of those "Masterpieces of Literature" that I would have to try and read at some point

At this point, I think the list of books one "should" read because they're ~masterpieces is something like 5000 books long, so I wouldn't worry too much about that aspect of it.

That said, I found Little Women really enjoyable and reread it often when I was a kid. If you like 19th century children's literature in general, I definitely recommend it. If you dislike the genre, otoh, then I don't know if Little Women will be awesome enough to change your mind.

IMO, it's neither that bad, nor a masterpiece. By all means read it, but with the understanding that a lot of people who love this book love it because they read it as a child and there's nostalgic value to it for them that might not work for someone who reads it for the first time as an adult.

Or because they watched the movie (or one of them anyway) and loved that. I had read it as a kid, but it was the Winona Rider movie that made me love Little Women.
