About this listen

Sharp and subversive, this delightfully messy YA rom-com offers a sly wink to the classic Little Women, as teenage Jo Porter rebels against living in the shadow of her literary namesake.

Lit’s about to hit the fan. Jo Porter has had enough Little Women to last a lifetime. As if being named after the sappiest family in literature wasn’t sufficiently humiliating, Jo’s mom, ahem Marmee, leveled up her Alcott obsession by turning their rambling old house into a sad-sack tourist attraction.

Now Jo, along with her siblings, Meg and Bethamy (yes, that’s two March sisters in one), spends all summer acting out sentimental moments at Little Women Live!, where she can feel her soul slowly dying.

So when a famed photojournalist arrives to document the show, Jo seizes on the glimpse of another life: artsy, worldly, and fast-paced. It doesn’t hurt that the reporter’s teenage son is also eager to get up close and personal with Jo—to the annoyance of her best friend, aka the boy next door (who is definitely not called Laurie). All Jo wants is for someone to see the person behind the prickliness and pinafores.

But when she gets a little too real about her frustration with the family biz, Jo will have to make peace with kitsch and kin before their livelihood suffers a fate worse than Beth.

Snarky but wholesome!

Delightful yet believable characters with plenty of sarcasm and teenage angst but no shortage of the feels!

Families - love in the midst of misunderstanging

I always wondered how the March family would fare in the modern world - with all its competing pressures. What if Jo wanted out? What if Amy really was a Narcissist? Would Marmee have the wisdom necessary to help her daughters. And what if there is a new Beth every year? Clever, laugh-out-loud funny dialog, a little romance, some real wisdom for living life today.
Also, the reader did a great job!
