THE SHOCKING EXPERIMENTS OF MISS MARY BENNET

Listeners will enjoy Amy Hoggart's charming narration of this fresh mash-up of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE and FRANKENSTEIN. Mary is a young, queer scientist who finds the real world drab. As her sisters are entering the world of courtship, Mary is more enraptured by her deadliest experiment yet: raising the dead. While her brilliance brings her the perfect partner, he comes at a cost. Although this isn't a lengthy audiobook, there are plenty of scenes to be explored. Hoggart gives Mary a strong voice as she expresses her equally strong opinions about a young lady's place in society. As Mary struggles with social expectations, Hoggart's narration is relatable, unique, and highly entertaining. G.M.
