The Other Bennet Sister by Janice Hadlow
slow-paced
3.5
3.5 stars
An ode to everyone who felt for (and related to) the awkward, introverted, bookish and under appreciated middle Bennet sister, Mary — and for anyone who believed she deserved a happy Regency era ending too.
It took me a while to get really invested into be story as it is slow to start, and Part 1 (the book is divided into four parts) takes place in many of the familiar scenes of Pride and Prejudice, but from Mary’s perspective.
By Part 3 I was heavily invested, and loved how the story resolved. Love all the nods to Austen’s books, and the continuation of many of the P&P characters.
