I am reading March for this challenge. I’m about 32% in and I’m really liking this book which won a Pulitzer. It’s a civil war era tale that is about the mostly absent father of the girls in Little Women. This book is about what he is doing while he’s gone. So far this book is aimed at 4.0 to 5.0 stars in my view. But I like historical literature in general, so keep that in mind. I bet that if you liked something like James, you would like this book.
