About this listen
Based on the Emmy Award-winning web series The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, this is a new novel starring Lizzie's spunky sister, Lydia, as she navigates the joys and pitfalls of becoming an adult in the digital age.
Before her older sister, Lizzie, started her wildly popular vlog, Lydia was just a normal 20-year-old plotting the many ways she could get away with skipping her community college classes and finding the perfect fake ID. She may not have had much direction, but she loved her family and had plenty of fun. Then Lizzie's vlog turned the Bennet sisters into Internet sensations, and Lydia basked in the attention as people watched, debated, tweeted, tumblr'd, and blogged about her life. But not all attention is good.
After her ex-boyfriend, George Wickham, took advantage of Lydia's newfound web fame, betrayed her trust, and destroyed her online reputation, she's no longer a naive, carefree girl. Now Lydia must work to win back her family's trust and respect and find her place in a far more judgmental world.
Told in Lydia's distinctive, eccentric, and endearing voice, The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet picks up right where The Secret Diary of Lizzie Bennet left off. Featuring fresh twists, wonderful new characters, and scores of hilarious texts and tweets, The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet takes you behind the webcam and into the lives of your favorite sisters in a way that's sure to satisfy existing fans and delight new ones.

From Lauren Graham, the beloved star of Gilmore Girls and Parenthood, comes a witty, charming, and hilariously relatable debut novel about a struggling young actress trying to get ahead - and keep it together - in New York City. It’s January 1995, and Franny Banks has just six months left of the three-year deadline she set for herself when she came to New York, dreaming of Broadway and doing "important" work. But all she has to show for her efforts so far is a part in an ad for ugly Christmas sweaters, and a gig waiting tables at a comedy club....

What did you love best about The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet?
So I was nervous listening to this one because I was afraid that she would have the same voice as in the YouTube Lizzie Bennet Diaries (high pitched, fast, annoying). But it wasn't! It was the same actress but she was mellowed.If you could rename The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet, what would you call it?
"Lydia Bennet is the most epic procrastinator of telling loved ones important things."Any additional comments?
Definitely pick this story up if you enjoyed the Lizzie Bennet Diaries. Also, I like this ending for Lydia Bennet a lot more than Jane Austen's ending for her.I was nervous..

What made the experience of listening to The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet the most enjoyable?
Mary Kate Wiles - her narration of the story was just perfect. Having her read Lydia's thoughts made it possible to easily picture the characters and everything that happens because I was familiar with The Lizzie Bennet Diaries.Who was your favorite character and why?
Aside from Lydia, I loved getting to know Mary better. The poor forgotten Mary had so little development in the videos. I also really loved Milo.Which character – as performed by Mary Kate Wiles – was your favorite?
Lydia of course. She is Lydia Bennet. However, she did excellent impersonations of all of the characters we had met. She did a great Lizzie :)The story Lydia Bennet deserves
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Mary Kate playing a subdued Lydia was jarring, but fit well with her story from the LBD series. The Bennet parents are given much more exposition here, and you actually come to like their mother.
MK also does very uncanny impressions of Mrs. Bennet... and Jane. Dear lord, does she do that impression justice.
Speaking of which, we need a third book with Jane as the protagonist! Although Laura Spencer is pretty busy these days...
A little angsty but a satisfying conclusion

What did you like best about this story?
It was surprisingly moving to follow Lydia's difficult road to self acceptance, forgiveness, and healing.Have you listened to any of Mary Kate Wiles’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This is Mary Kate's first audiobook, but its one she should be very proud of. Her reading show her great depth and understanding of the character of Lydia Bennet, which is to be expected, but she also fully brings to life a new cast of characters. I hope she does more books.This unexpectedly gave me many feels

My heart hurt for Lydia. As everything went wrong, again (admittedly by her own faults), she stopped caring, and that was the strange thing. But, I get it. Girl, I have been there. I still go there sometimes. I’m glad you caught on eventually, and despite not caring, you didn’t give up.
Okay, so, it’s safe to say these characters are real to me. And they are. In a way, they always have been, due to my love of P&P, but, there brought to life in such a new way. And, thanks to the amazing writers, and the talented Mary Kate Wiles, Lydia was brought to life in a way that made her.... sympathetic. I don’t want to say redeeming, but... they made her likable in a way she’s never been before.
Okay... the scene where Lydia confronts George... I knew it’d be in there, and I knew they had thought about having it in the webseries, but decided not to, but I didn’t know. I didn’t know what it’d be, or how much I would love it. I am so proud of Lydia.
AND MARY! I was initially disappointed that things with Eddie didn’t work out, but man... he was a douche. I’m honestly bit horrified. But I’m glad things worked out so much better for her. And it was nice to have Denny mentioned, even if I was temporarily confused, thinking of P&P’s version of Denny, and wondering why they were hanging with George’s friend. But, then I remembered, in the videos, he’s Mary’s friend.
Also, I always liked what they did with Mary in the webseries. I was always disappointed she wasn’t in more of Lizzie’s videos, and enjoyed her in Lydia’s videos.
THE ONLY THING I AM DISAPPOINTED WITH, IS THAT WE NEVER GET TO SEE ANY LYDIA AND GIGI INTERACTIONS. I always wanted to see it, but, understandably it never happened. But, hello! She’s going with Darcy to the Bennet’s for Christmas. WE MISSED IT BY A FREAKING DAY.
I so enjoyed getting to be able to join Lydia on her journey. Watching her grow, and cope. Meet new friends in New York, that she actually keeps. Good friends. Nice parallels with her running to Jane, and it was nice to see how Jane had changed. AND BING CALLING LYDIA HIS FUTURE SISTER-IN-LAW!
Obviously I can’t be coherent, but my love for this book, and Lizzie’s book, is real. Hell, anything Pemberley Digital does, has my love.
If an adventure is a trip without a destination...
