Overview
Considered a new classic among the pantheon of erotic literature, "Carrie's Story" is an SM novel that transcends the mere graphic and titillating aspect of the genre, and forges a brutally honest and captivating experience that keeps the reader connected to the story as well as the characters. Carrie's tale of "uncompromising sexual adventure" is set in the west coast areas of San Francisco and the Napa valley, where the ingénue (and the reader) are taken on a "sexually explicit journey" into the world of slave auctions, training regimes, and even human ponies. The story is flawlessly written, being intelligent and light-hearted, as well as "humorous and harrowing," serving as an outstanding exploration of mastery and submission within the BDSM subculture that's told from the point of view of the submissive. This particular literary device affords the reader substantial insight into the mind of such an individual; someone willing to leave themselves to the mercy of another, be it pain or pleasure. With a voice that is wry and cynical, it is this critical self-awareness that provides the answering motivation for subordination and the absolution from decision that results in Carrie's ultimate sexual opulence.

[italic|Carrie's Story] by Molly Weatherfield is a lovely novel about one woman's journey to self discovery through service. It is a rich BDSM novel that shows the author's commitment to safe, sane and concensual play. An amazing read I recommend this to anyone who is interested in exploring BDSM.

If you get off on the idea of being restrained or punished, if S&M is your bag, if you have ever dreamt of being entirely at another persons disposal for their sexual gratification or entertainment, you will almost definitely love this book. It is a rather gritty but personal look at the world of S&M through the eyes of a young woman who is taking a crash course in it. It is after all "An Erotic S&M Novel".

If you're interested in BDSM, Carrie's Story, with its well-drawn and intelligent characters and depictions and images of slavery and pleasure, is sure to be a delight to read. Carrie takes a journey to explore and become the slave she can be, and you'll find yourself lost in her world until the very end.

Carrie's Story is a raw look into the world of BDSM. It shows aspects of the lifestyle that aren't always glamorized but always manages to keep the writing very erotic. A very easy-to-read book that has great descriptions and is very well-written.

This book is an erotic novel about Carrie and her trainings as she moves from the sexual slave of one man to a slave preparing for an auction. It was my first S&M novel and I got sucked into it and really enjoyed the story.

Carrie's Story was a very interesting introduction to the world of BDSM for me. I feel the quality of the writing is very high, with plenty of input from Carrie, whether it is her enjoyment, confusion, or fear. The book is also put together very well with good quality pages. Due to the subjects of this book, including slavery, pony play, and humiliation, this may not be an enjoyable read for everyone.

Whether you're just starting out exploring kinky fantasies or you're looking for another kinky book to sate your desires, you'll enjoy [italic|Carrie's Story]. But if you're looking to explore BDSM on a practical level, Molly Weatherfield is not the author you want to turn to for advice.

My overall impression of this book are...it's amazing! I cannot wait to read more like it. The next book in my list is "The Story of O" as it is mentioned in this book a few times. It may make a few references make a little more sense to me. Overall, I suggest this to everyone. Men and women. Take a crack at it and maybe it will take a crack of you.

A novel about BDSM is not something I originally would have expected to enjoy. I'm not saying I like chains and whips now, but that Carrie's Story has provided me an appreciation and understanding to the fetish. Weatherfield's writing will have you crying by the end of the novel, and gripping your bedsheets during the sex scenes. Sex, paired with the danger of sadism, has never been more explicit.

For someone who wants to envelop themselves into the world of BDSM without reading a tutorial, this book is a guilty pleasure. It's an easy read and if you're prone to stay up and read a book you've gotten hooked by, this one will do it. Carrie is easy to get attached to and you'll find yourself bringing her to life.
