Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen

emotional funny lighthearted medium-paced
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
Northanger Abbey is one of Jane Austen's earlier books, and you can definitely tell that she was still refining her style when she wrote it. Nevertheless, it is a very entertaining read with some excellent villains and a delightfully witty love interest. If you're struggling to get into classics I'd recommend this as a place to dip your toes.
