About this listen

 Based on the Emmy Award–winning YouTube series The Lizzie Bennet Diaries.

Twenty‑four‑year‑old grad student Lizzie Bennet is saddled with student loan debt and still living at home along with her two sisters—beautiful Jane and reckless Lydia. When she records her reflections on life for her thesis project and posts them on YouTube, she has no idea The Lizzie Bennet Diaries will soon take on a life of their own, turning the Bennet sisters into internet celebrities seemingly overnight.

When rich and handsome Bing Lee comes to town, along with his stuck‑up friend William Darcy, things really start to get interesting for the Bennets—and for Lizzie’s viewers. But not everything happens on‑screen. Lucky for us, Lizzie has a secret diary.

The Secret Diary of Lizzie Bennet takes readers deep inside Lizzie’s world and well beyond the confines of her camera—from the wedding where she first meets William Darcy to the local hangout of Carter’s bar, and much more. Lizzie’s private musings are filled with revealing details about the Bennet household, including her growing suspicions about her parents’ unstable financial situation, her sister’s budding relationship with Bing Lee, the perils of her unexpected fame, and her uncertainty over her future—and whom she wants to share it with.

Featuring plenty of fresh twists to delight fans and new readers alike, The Secret Diary of Lizzie Bennet expands on the web series phenomenon that captivated a generation and reimagines the Pride and Prejudice story like never before.

If you loved the web series then you will likely enjoy this book. It follows the same events of the series but adds more scenes and context that wasn't shown on video.
The narrator is the actor who plays Lizzie in the series, and she obviously does a great job in getting back into the character she played for 100 episodes.

Great read for fans of the web series

I marathoned the web series when I first found out about it (after it ended). Then I read the book when it first came out. I wanted to reread it but I couldn't find it anywhere, someone must've borrowed it and haven't returned it. So I finally listened to the audio book. It's great to listen to Ashley Clements and she did such a great job portraying everyone. This is the first audio book I've ever properly listened to. I love how I can do some work while also listen to the story. I'm gonna listen to The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet next 😀

The narrator was great in the main character and some other female voices but her Catherine voice was caricature cringeworthy as was Darcy's robotic stammer. Due to this it took away from the romantic part of the story. I think for me, I should have skipped the audio and read the ebook along with the YouTube part.
