Elizabeth Hamilton : Memoirs of Modern Philosophers
'In December 1810 a box of books arrived and the family began to read a novel which they "liked very much". This book is "modern Philosophy", whose anti-heroine, "Miss Biddy Botherin", who made them "Laugh a good deal", is a devotee of radical Godwinian philosophy, a satirical portrait probably combining elements pf Mary Hays and Mary Wollstonecraft" [hence Grove is resisting her then-fiance Shelley's philosophy and aesthetics.'
