Seeking Mansfield

By: Kate Watson

Narrated by: Kirby Heyborne, Elizabeth Evans

Sixteen-year-old Finley Price has perfected two things: how to direct a world-class production and how to fly way, way under the radar. The only person who ever seems to notice Finley is her best friend and godparents' son, Oliver Bertram. Since Finley moved in with her godparents after the death of her father, she and Oliver have grown close. If Finley could just take Oliver's constant encouragement to heart and step out of the shadows, she'd finally chase her dream of joining the prestigious Mansfield Theater. But when teen movie stars Emma and Harlan Crawford move across the street from the Bertrams, they shake up Finley and Oliver's stable friendship.

As Emma and Oliver grow closer, Finley realizes that Harlan's attention is shifting to her. She discovers she might have feelings for him, too. Or is she interested in Harlan only because Oliver is taken? Finley doesn't want to be won, and she doesn't want to see Oliver with anyone else. To claim Oliver's heart - and keep her own - she'll have to find the courage to do what she fears most: step into the spotlight.

Must read now!

Oh my gosh I loooooved this book. Literally listened to it all in one day. All the complexity of Mansfield Park but with the perfect modern application. Amazing!

Great story

I enjoyed Elizabeth’s reading however Kirby’s reading was too slow at times and hard to listen to

remember me

I would like to see if they get together or not. I'll wait for the next book and see it goes.

Ehh, it was okay.

I loved the plot of the story, but I hated how they had you fully invested in one relationship most of the book. All the while, the last chapter or 2 they completely destroy that story line and put her with someone else that you didn’t see help her grow (although in the background he was helping her all along)

Great Modern Day Adaption.

One of the best modern day adaptions of an Austen novel in my opinion. Geared toward young adults which I am not but listened to it because I'm a Jane Austen fan. There are 2 follow up books that I know of. I'm hoping they will soon be on Audible. The narration was great. a bit too much "making out." for my taste but all in all, an enjoyable book. The name replacements for some of the characters to more modern names was genius. Especially for the girls. I've heard this book twice and both times were equally enjoyable.
