place she feels safe: her books. Determined to be ",right", since
she can never be ",beautiful,", she prepares for a life of solitude
at Longbourn.One by one, the other sisters move on: Jane and Lizzy
for love, and Lydia for respectability. Mary is destined to remain
single, at least until her father dies and the house is bequeathed
to the reviled Mr Collins.But when that fateful day finally
arrives, the life Mary expected is turned upside down. In the face
of uncertainty, she slowly discovers that there is hope for the
",plain", sister after all. . .Experience the witty, life-affirming
tale of a young woman finally finding her place in the world.This

final pages' – Jo Baker, author of Longbourn
