With a mischievous wink, Jo Porter, a teenage rebel, defies the expectations of living in the shadow of her literary namesake.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLife is about to take an unexpected turn for Jo. Named after the beloved Alcott family, she has endured enough Little Women to last a lifetime. To add insult to injury, her mother, Marmee, has taken her obsession with the classics to a whole new level by transforming their rambling old house into a dreary tourist attraction. Now, Jo, along with her siblings, Meg and Bethamy (yes, two March sisters in one), spends their summers reliving sentimental moments at Little Women Live!, a place where her soul feels slowly withering away.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut when a renowned photojournalist arrives to document the show, Jo sees an opportunity for a different kind of life—one that is artistic, worldly, and fast-paced. The reporter's teenage son, too, is intrigued by Jo, causing her best friend, who happens to be the boy next door (but definitely not named Laurie), to feel a sense of annoyance. All Jo desires is for someone to see beyond the prickliness and pinafores and discover the real person behind them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHowever, as Jo becomes more candid about her frustrations with the family business, she realizes that she must find a way to reconcile with the kitsch and the familiarity before their livelihood suffers a fate even worse than Beth's. This delightful tale of self-discovery and embracing one's true identity will leave readers eagerly anticipating Jo's next adventure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 286g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 x 203 x 24 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780063309067\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amanda Sellet","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":45289889628410,"sku":"9780063309067","price":6.41,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1705681550609_book.jpg?v=1705732460","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/belittled-women-9780063309067","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
