<p><b>'Will delight <i>Pride and Prejudice </i>fans' - <i>Independent</i><br><br>A wonderfully warm homage to Jane Austen and a delightful new story in its own right, Janice Hadlow's <i>The Other Bennet Sister </i>is a life-affirming tale of a young woman finding her place in the world.
This is Mary Bennet's story . . .</b><br><br><b>'It's difficult not to race through those final pages' – Jo Baker, author of <i>Longbourn</i></b><br><br>In Jane Austen’s <i>Pride and Prejudice</i>, Mary is the middle of the five Bennet girls and the plainest of them all, so what hope does she have? Prim and pious, with no redeeming features, she is unloved and seemingly unlovable.<br><br><i>The Other Bennet Sister</i>, though, shows another side to Mary.
An introvert in a family of extroverts; a constant disappointment to her mother who values beauty above all else; fearful of her father’s sharp tongue; with little in common with her siblings – is it any wonder she turns to books for both company and guidance? And, if she finds her life lonely or lacking, that she determines to try harder at the one thing she <i>can </i>be: right.<br><br>One by one, her sisters marry – Jane and Lizzy for love; Lydia for some semblance of respectability – but Mary, it seems, is destined to remain single and live out her life at Longbourn, at least until her father dies and the house is bequeathed to the reviled Mr Collins.<br><br>But when that fateful day finally comes, she slowly discovers that perhaps there <i>is</i> hope for her, after all.<br><br><b>Witty and uplifting, <i>The Other Bennet Sister </i>will make you feel – and cheer – for Mary as you never have before.</b></p>
