Her best friend Charlotte helps her, her sweet sister Jane supports her, her wild sister Lydia provides plenty of material for her, as does her mother with her obsession about marrying off her daughters. Lizzie Bennet is a grad student in new media who starts vlogging about her family as a school project. I loved this story, and I loved the audiobook version of it as well. The characters are sort of over-the-top in general, and she really had fun bringing them to life. She did an AMAZING job, nuancing each character’s voices in such a way that the audiobook was a production in itself.

I listened to the audiobook, which is read by the star of the series, Ashley Clements. I was unfamiliar with the source and didn’t need the background at all. The Secret Diary of Lizzie Bennet is a new novel by Bernie Su and Kate Rorick, apparently an extension of the popular youtube series the Lizzie Bennet Diaries.
