Do we like Jo March?

A character from Little Women (1868–1869)

Our score: 8 out of 10. Yes, we'd back her. She's loyal, brave and fiercely honest. Her temper and stubbornness cost her sometimes, but she works hard to do better.

Jo is the second of the four March sisters. They live with their mother while their father is away serving in the Civil War. Jo is tomboyish, outspoken and passionate about books. She dreams of being a famous writer and writes plays for her sisters to perform.

Jo is impulsive, proud and quick-tempered, and she resists the limits placed on women of her time. She is also very loyal and generous. She earns money for her family, befriends their lonely neighbour, and will not pretend to be someone she isn't.

Over the book she learns to manage her temper and to balance her independence with love. Readers often see her as a stand-in for the author, Louisa May Alcott. We give her an 8 because her flaws are real but her heart and her integrity are stronger.
