A Little Princess (SuBC and spoilers)
I read this for the Matchbook novels list category. I'm pretty sure I'd read it when I was young, but it would have been 20+ years ago. I knew the plot, but not the details.
I really enjoyed it! Someone I'm friends with on GR from here talked about the idea that Sara is a Mary Sue (a female protagonist who is unnaturally sweet and empty, with little to no character development or negative qualities) and argued against that idea. I loved this review. I agree. Sara was so positive thinking, but it seemed to be more that obliviousness that made her that way.
I knew it was coming, but I was so sad when her dad died. He seemed to love her so much.
If you haven't read it, it's a quick and easy classic to pick up.
