Patty’s Fortune by Carolyn Wells

The story of 20 years old Patty leading a life where everyone, in their own way, is trying to direct her as to what she should have for her future, is relatable for most of the girls, especially in the third world countries despite the fact that the setting of the story is much Victorian Europe. As Patty lives through a dilemma to choose between Bill Farnsworth and Philip Van Reypan, and loses Mrs. Reypen in the meantime, read the novella to have a quick yet fabulous read.
