Carrie's Story was written for anyone with even the slightest interest in BDSM or even just a bit of kinkiness. I was engulfed by the author's ability to bring you right into Carrie's mind. The reader gets to see the inside of the lifestyle through the eyes of a young woman, and that offered a unique perspective. I enjoyed seeing her thoughts; honestly, at times, I felt for her. There were several spots in Carrie's Story where I found myself asking the same questions she did. I think the author did a good job of pulling in her audience, although, I would have liked seeing more male submissives because I thought they were greatly underrepresented.

I am more drawn to the entire lifestyle than to a fun time in bed, and Carrie's Story sparked my interest immediately. Rather than being a short story that ends with Carrie being who she was before her adventure (as she called it), this was a book about a new life she chose. I loved being taken back to step one to see just how her Master found her; I must add though, it was a bit stereotypical and even cheesy (I really think the author could have been a bit more creative here). To me, the ending left a lot to be desired, but that is just me.

Overall I was left with a wonderful impression, and a deep urge for impact play.

The only issues I had while reading were when she jumped back to the very beginning to explain her whole story. I was a little lost when we got back to present day, but that could have just been me.

Overall, however, it was easy to follow. A very easy read, I think I finished it in under three hours (it isn't a very long book, really). I would have liked to see more difficulty in the reading level, but that is just the literature lover in me peeking out and critiquing the book.

The author does a nice job of pulling the reader into Carrie's life.
