Good Wives ch. 24 Finale

Tonight, at long last, we’ll read the final chapter of “Good Wives” written by Louisa May Alcott titled “Harvest Time”. It’s hard to believe, but we have been reading this book for the first time as we’ve read it to you, and that first chapter was started back in December 2019, when Snoozecast was less than 1 year old.

We took a break after part one concluded in June 2022 to explore other books. By popular request, we reopened the story in 2023, beginning the second part of Little Women—originally published separately as Good Wives.

In our last chapter, “Under the Umbrella,” Jo, busy but lonely, had often thought of Professor Bhaer and regretted their stiff parting. On a rainy errand she met him beneath an umbrella; as they walked, he gently explained why he had stopped reading her sensational tales, and Jo told him she had left that work behind for truer writing—bringing them closer. In the rain he confessed his love, and Jo happily returned it. They reached the March home soaked but radiant, where Marmee quickly understood, and the chapter closed on Jo’s quiet, genuine happiness and the promise of a life with Bhaer.
