After reading this I looked at some of the reviews as I was curious what some of the common criticisms are. I saw things like the book is old fashioned/traditional in terms of the family unit (it is), that the morals are very on the nose (they are), and that it can be preachy (it can be).
They're all valid criticisms that I also see, yet, part 1 for me was an easy 5 stars. I was just enthralled with the families dynamics, the characters, and the familial love radiated off the page. Part 2 I didn't enjoy as much because some of that coziness is lost with them going their own ways, but overall I had a good time with this. I look forward to continuing with Little Men cause Jo was always my favourite anyhow.
