Currently Reading: Northanger Abbey

This book is the first ever by Jane Austen, though it was published posthumously. I have been reading it for the last little while and it's great. It is Jane Austen's spoof on Gothic novels. The second part of the book is just making me giggle as Henry sets Catherine up for an adventure that is all in her imagination while she is staying with his family at Northanger Abbey. And let me just say for the record that I am a fan of Henry Tilney in this book.
