Pauline's Passion and Punishment

Amazing story!!! It is short but full. Louisa May Alcott delivers a splendid, thought-provoking tale. I definitely recommend this story!

What a story…enjoyed.

Good.

Disappointed

I didn't like the book. it was difficult to identify with the characters. The narrator's distinctions of each character was not strong and I couldn't tell if they were men or women.

Louisa May Alcott deserves all the accolades she receives. This is on par with her other writings. Try this book.

Old fashioned and over dramatic !

long dramatic tale, coming of age

Hard to believe this was written by Louisa May Alcott. The anger of a woman spurned. Quite a Vixen really, But in her plans for retribution, Pauline uses other people. Even the infatuation of a young man who would do anything for her. Makes you wonder how blinded by vengeance she was that she could not see the ripples her revenge was making, nor to look ahead at how they might be affected by it. I really would have liked to see Pauline learn that it wasn’t all about her! But then the book is titled Pauline’s Passion and Punishment. The reader was very good. Her reading manner did not disturb the understanding at all like some.
