A classic: Northanger Abbey The Complete Jane Austen Collection by Jane Austen

Jane Austen is, of course, well known for books such as Pride and Prejudice, and Sense and Sensibility.  But…she also wrote several other novels including this one.  To me, Northanger Abbey is a bit different from Austen’s other works.  It is her version of the Gothic tales that were popular during her own time.  In Austen’s version, the protagonist, Catherine Morland, would like to be more exciting, more like a Gothic heroine.  What will happen when Catherine leaves home for the first time?  What will happen during her visit to Northanger Abbey?  It is well worth reading this classic to find out!

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title in exchange for an honest review.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses! View all posts by joycesmysteryandfictionbookreviews
