When I was in high school in South Africa, I read all Louisa's books I could get my hands on! This was one of my absolute favourites!! There are some new ones I haven't read on this website - I am overjoyed to have found it!!!! Louisa's books are a must read for any girl or woman (it is 17yr later but she still holds my print-junky-heart in her hands!)

I had read L. M. Alcott's Eight Cousins several years ago, and when I learned that there was a sequel I was overjoyed. I found Rose in Bloom to be even better than its predecessor; the combination of humor and morals was excellent, and I would recommend it to anyone of any age (I'm 14). I hope you enjoy it!

Eight Cousins is one of my very favorites, but I admit I was a bit disappointed with Rose in Bloom. I have to say that I did not like Rose's choice of husband, not that she actually had much of a choice in the end. I also found this book was a little more preachy and less funny and sweet as the first.

I really like Rose Campbell because she stands up for the right thing even though it was very hard to do it. I like the style of writing and i think Louisa May Alcott is an author every girl should read!!

Rose in Bloom has been a fav of mine for years. One thing I enjoy the most is how Rose stands for what she feels is right (although she struggles sometimes)and she gets her reward in the end :-) The book is written and placed in the olden times, but the lessons are still useful for today's girls.

A very romantic story. I was really glad when Rose agreed to marry ..... i won't tell. Go on and read the book. It is worth your time

Rose in Bloom is a great book! I love the language and the subtle romance in this book. While I do feel for Charlie, I think Rose picked the best man in the end, though I won't tell you who it is!
