The book club
is about to get
a makeover....
Even if Megan would rather be at the mall, Cassidy is late for hockey practice, Emma's already read every book in existence, and Jess is missing her mother too much to care, the new book club is scheduled to meet every month.
But what begins as a mom-imposed ritual of reading Little Women soon helps four unlikely friends navigate the drama of middle school. From stolen journals, to secret crushes, to a fashion-fiasco first dance, the girls are up to their Wellie boots in drama. They can't help but wonder: What would Jo March do?
Acclaimed author Heather Vogel Frederick will delight daughters of all ages in a novel about the fabulousness of fiction, family, and friendship.

This book is good because it helps girls become closer to their moms. It reminds me of another good book I've read about 4 people who aren't like each other at all but become friends.
Megan, Cassidy, Jess and Emma are less than thrilled when their mothers start a mother-daughter book club. Meghan would rather be hanging out with her popular friends, Cassidy would rather be playing Hockey, Jess feels awkward with her mother away, and Emma wants to avoid Megan. But even though they started out by being forced to read Little Women, they soon find their book club is where they can escape middle school life but at the same time figure out how to handle the drama. And through all that happens, they can't help but ask: What would Jo March do? This is a wonderful book about friends, family, and navigating middle school. I recommend this book to middle school girls. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.
I thought this book was okay because I thought this book a little boring when i read it over the summer. But i would recommend this book to people who find this book interesting.
Emma, Jess, Megan, and Cassidy are all unique girls each with a problem of their own. So when they are all shoved into the Mother-Daughter Book Club, they aren't thrilled. What started as an assigned reading of Little Women soon helps them overcome their issues in their everyday lives. When all of the girls find themselves in trouble, they end up wondering, "What would Jo March do?" This book would appeal to people who like realistic fiction, drama, and friendship stories. I loved it and hope you read it!
My friend had this book on her shelf and I've always thought of reading it. When I finally got around to reading the book, I knew I was going to love it! This is an AMAZING book about four girls whose mothers put them in a book club. The four unlikely friends bond with each other and their mothers while reading Little Women. As the start of a 10 book series all about other books that I've read, like Anne of Green Gables, I'm excited to read the rest! I definitely recommend this book!
This book was OK, but it wasn't really my type since it's about books, which whenever I think of books, I feel happy. I kind of half recommend it since there wasn't a "half recommend" option so I rate this 3 stars.
this book is about 4 girls who do not seem like the best match different interests different tastes different styles but they evenually become best friends
I really enjoyed this book and I would like to read the whole series.
I like this book is nice i did not like as much as i thought i mean it was a nice but not my kind of book i would give it 2 stars
