Snippet: Northanger Abbey, from Allison

Allison over at The Allure of Books re-read Northanger Abbey [ ;p ] and defended one of my faves quote nicely.  SHe says:
" It is much funnier and more entertaining then I remember it being....Henry Tilney is higher on my list of favorite Austen heroes then I previously thought. He would be the most fun to be around out of all of them, I think. He is very flirty and witty, but he is also a very loyal and kind man....Austen got it right when she created Tilney, no doubt about it.
...
Catherine Moreland's coming of age is the star of the show here."

Agreed!
