The Classics- Little Women

Hi! I hope you enjoy this book reveiw on Little Women! 

Author- Louisa May Alcott
Genre- Fiction

Little Women is a classic and captivating story set in the 1860's. It has depth and muti-dimensional characters, who show raw feelings and have unique personalities.

Meg, Jo Beth and Amy are sisters, who are all distinctively different. This book is about their challenges, triumphs and adventures they face growing up and after they get married.

I like this book because it gives an insight into what life was like in the mid 1800's. This era presented different realities compared to now for women including financial security, social classes, careers and relationships. This book is very entertaining because it takes you along on an emotional rollercoaster throughout this fictional but lifelike story. (5 stars).

I highly recommend Little Women, which is suitable for older children through to adults. You need to stay focused to pick up the themes of the book, which are complicated because this is written and set in an historical context and there are several characters to follow. It's an extremely enjoyable, timeless classic. If you like stories by Jane Austen then it is likely you will enjoy this book.

I hope you enjoyed this book review on Little Women! Love-bookworm blog

Songs- Choir

Hi! This is another song review (I know I haven't done a song review in about a year, but I'll try to do more). This song review is on Choir. If you want to, please give me songs to review!

Link to the first song review- bad guy by Billie Eilish

Artist(s)- Guy Sebastian   
Released- 31st of May, 2019
Album- T.R.U.T.H
Genre- Pop
Song- Choir

The artist Guy Sebastion was born on 26th of October 1981.

I give this song Choir 5 out of 5 stars ⛦ because of the story behind it. Guy Sebastion based this song off Luke Liang who had passed away at the age of 28. Luke lost his battle with depression. Although Guy got his inspiration from Luke who had died, it is not a sad song and gives more emphasis on hope. I also like the beat and tempo as it's uplifting. This is good for the world because currently we have a global pandemic (Covid19) and we need some happiness and positivity now more than ever.
 
This is also a very upbeat song. The words are sung quite quickly though so if you want to sing Choir maybe you shouldn't do it as a beginner but non the less it's a great song! This song has no swearing/cursing in it and also has family appropriate themes.

I hope you enjoyed this song review on Choir! Love-bookworm blog
