X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Mary\, the bookish ugly duckling of <em>Pr
 ide and Prejudice</em>&rsquo\;s five Bennet sisters\, emerges from the sha
 dows and transforms into a desired woman with choices of her own.&nbsp\;<b
 r />&nbsp\;<br />What if Mary Bennet&rsquo\;s life took a different path f
 rom that laid out for her in Pride and Prejudice? What if the frustrated i
 ntellectual of the Bennet family\, the marginalized middle daughter\, the 
 plain girl who takes refuge in her books\, eventually found the fulfillmen
 t enjoyed by her prettier\, more confident sisters? This is the plot of Th
 e Other Bennet Sister\, a debut novel with exactly the affection and autho
 rity to satisfy Austen fans.&nbsp\;<br />&nbsp\;<br />Ultimately\, Mary&rs
 quo\;s journey is like that taken by every Austen heroine. She learns that
  she can only expect joy when she has accepted who she really is. She must
  throw off the false expectations and wrong ideas that have combined to ob
 scure her true nature and prevented her from what makes her happy. Only wh
 en she undergoes this evolution does she have a chance at finding fulfillm
 ent\; only then does she have the clarity to recognize her partner when he
  presents himself&mdash\;and only at that moment is she genuinely worthy o
 f love.&nbsp\;<br />&nbsp\;<br />Mary&rsquo\;s destiny diverges from that 
 of her sisters. It does not involve broad acres or landed gentry. But it d
 oes include a man\; and\, as in all Austen novels\, Mary must decide wheth
 er he is the truly the one for her. In The Other Bennet Sister\, Mary is a
  fully rounded character&mdash\;complex\, conflicted\, and often uncertain
 \; but also vulnerable\, supremely sympathetic\, and ultimately the protag
 onist of an uncommonly satisfying debut novel.&nbsp\;<br />&nbsp\;<br />-f
