Isabelle is a young woman who is just starting her first year at Oxford. But beneath her studious facade lurks a raging passion for sex, spanking and BDSM; all of which--and more!--she gets from men and women alike. This book is not to be missed by any serious spanking afficianado. My rating: 10/10.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top Notch!, December 24, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: The Indignities of Isabelle (Nexus) (Mass Market Paperback)

This book is an absolute must if you are a Penny Birch fan. It is one of her earliest efforts, but also one of her all-time best. The heroine of the story is a strong woman, similar to Amber Oakley in other PB books, who has both dominant and submissive tendencies. There is a little of everything for the reader, but the scenes are rendered so well and so convincingly, that they leave other books in the dust. Early in 2004, a follow-up book, "Indiscretions of Isabelle", is to be released, so it would be a good idea to read this one first. This ranks well with Penny's other early efforts, "A Taste of Amber", and "Brat", both of which introduced two of her best characters, the aforementioned Amber Oakley, and Natasha Linnet. This book has been in publication for a while now, but really stands the test of time. One of the best I've enjoyed in years.

The main character is easy to relate to. Carrie learns about the world of BDSM and is a quick study. We get to follow her along her learning process as she goes from an amateur dom to a nearly perfect sub in this story. She does some very indignified (even dirty) things in this book that leave the ready horny and wanting for more!
