I bought this book ages ago based on vibes and finally got around to reading it! It’s YA about a middle daughter of five who realizes she’s the Mary Bennet of her own life story when what she wants to be is the Lizzie. In her quest to distinguish herself and stand out from her sisters, she realizes maybe being herself isn’t so bad. I love a P&P retelling and a coming of age story so I loved this!
