It will be interesting to see how the movie compares. Someone in one of the GoodReads threads already pointed out that "Nicholas" does not appear in the cast listing.

I had a hard time rereading <i>Little Women</i> last month, but loved <i>A Tale of Two Cities</i> and <i>Agnes Grey</i>.

It can be interesting to see how much you remember, and whether you dis/like the book as much now as you did then. I absolutely hate <i>Huck Finn</i> in HS, but when I read it four years later in college, liked it much better.
