BE CLASSIC with Little Women, introduced by New York Times bestselling author Laurie Halse Anderson. Grown-up Meg, tomboyish Jo, timid Beth, and precocious Amy. The four March sisters couldn't be more different. But with their father away at war, and their mother working to support the family, they have to rely on one another. Whether they're putting on a play, forming a secret society, or celebrating Christmas, there's one thing they can't help wondering: Will Father return home safely?
"I have something new to talk about . . . tonight I will be going out," Mama gently tells Llama Llama.
At first, Llama feels okay with this. After all, Mama has gone out before and Gram and Grandpa have stayed with him. But this time they can't. Someone new is coming over, and the more he thinks about it, the more he worries! He knows he will be miserable . . . and then the doorbell rings. It's Molly from the ice cream store. What is she doing here? And she has ice cream! Maybe having a new babysitter isn't nearly as bad as he thought!
Sloane Hart es una romántica de la cabeza a los pies. Pero el divorcio de sus padres la hace creer que el amor no existe. Es por ello que renuncia a las citas y decide centrarse en la universidad, en convertirse en escritora y en mudarse a Nueva York. Hasta que conoce a Ethan Brady. Cauto y misterioso, no está dispuesto a hablar demasiado de sí mismo ni a dejar que nadie se le acerque...
Cuando empiezan a salir juntos sin etiquetas, ambos saben que no durará para siempre. Sin embargo, ella no puede evitar imaginar un futuro con él, pero Ethan es incapaz de brindarle el compromiso que necesita. Sin poder dejarlo marchar, Sloane tendrá que luchar por su amor… o aprender que, simplemente, hay cosas que no están destinadas a ser.
«No, no llegamos a salir juntos. No es un exnovio. Es un "excasi". Tal vez eso era lo único que siempre seríamos; una frase incompleta de un libro que alguien dejó de leer a la mitad y nunca retomó».
