Dear Jane Odiwe,
Congratulations on writing a book about the most unlikable character in British literature.
                              
Sincerely,
A youngest sister who fears that Lydia Bennet has created a bad name for youngests-in-the-family worldwide.

  2. I am the Lydia Bennet of the 21st century. Finally my voice will be heard.

  3. Thank you for giving my book a mention!

    I like to think that no one is bad through and through - perhaps Lydia, though silly, is a product of her upbringing. Her mother spoils her and her father ignores her so I imagined this would have an effect on her character. I wanted to see if I could change people's perception of her and I had a lot of fun doing it!
