The Getting of Wisdom

I kept waiting for there to be some development in Laura's character, but she seemed to continue making the same mistakes over and over again, and becoming more immature and unpleasant as the story went on. Her behavior could be excused at the very beginning of the story, but by the end of it it was just tiresome. I enjoyed the descriptions of her education, and elements of study, but otherwise it's not something I would recommend to a friend.
