Behind a Mask, Or, a Woman's Power by Louisa May Alcott

4.0

This was recommended to me by a fan of Alcott as a work that is nothing like Little Women and I am glad I gave it a chance (Little Women is too wholesome and preachy for me). A conwoman governess pretending to be someone she's not to manipulate one of the many rich men of the family into a marriage? Sign me up! I listened to the audiobook and enjoyed it immensely. It was soapy, it was at times over the top dramatic, but it was also full of plot twists and I didn't want it to end.
