Padmini Sukumaran asked this question about Little Women (Little Women, #1):
Was Jo ever in love with Laurie?
Louise Not romantically. I think Jo was in love with the thought of Laurie. He was everything anyone could ever ask for and more. BUT SHE WAS A LESBIAN!!! So…moreNot romantically. I think Jo was in love with the thought of Laurie. He was everything anyone could ever ask for and more. BUT SHE WAS A LESBIAN!!! So many signs lead back to this exact point. When Jo went to take Laurie back she had convinced herself that it would be okay, and that she wanted that, but really the true reason behind their amazing bond was that they were platonic soulmates. Jo loved Laurie, but she was not IN love with him. (less)
