A review by zbmorgan
The Other Bennet Sister by Janice Hadlow

5.0

The closest thing you will get to more Jane Austen. Hadlow's debut novel focuses on Mary, the unloved, awkward butt of even her family's jokes. Mary isn't done yet though, and after her sisters are married off, she sends herself on an intellectual and eventually emotional quest, staying with first the Bingleys, then The Collins's, and eventually Mr. & Mrs. Gardiner. Satisfying and believable, you will root for Mary from page one once you know what was really going on in her head and heart.
