Which Austen heroine are you?
I finally took the plunge and found out what Austen character I am.
Take the Quiz here!
I don’t know about that. I love Northanger Abbey and I quite liked Catherine Moreland, but am I like her? “Sweet, adorable, unworldly”? Many people would disagree. On the other hand from what I have seen there are plenty of Elizabeth Bennetts out there and not many Catherines, so at least I’m not one of many.
Then again, my first thought was that I would have preferred to end up with Mr. Darcy than with Henry Tilney. Probably because I didn’t particularly like the looks of Peter Firth (superficial as I am). However, that thought caused me to have a look around for Henry Tilney as he was quite inconspicuous and I remembered next to nothing about him. After searching for a bit I stumbled across this post at Jane Austen’s World. I will have to reconsider, maybe Mr. Tilney is not so bad after all…
Confession: I put Catherine and Henry in my category of couples who will not live happily ever after. I think Catherine is an adorable person, very Sweet indeed, but will bore Tilney to death in 6 months…

You might be right here. Apart from Elizabeth Bennett (and possibly Emma who will drive Knightley insane every day anew) this is probably the case with all the novels,

Northanger Abbey is actually the only Jane Austen book that I’ve read, ha ha. Like a lot of things, I love the IDEA of Austen but can’t read it. I really liked Northanger Abbey though; just can’t get through any of her others.

Sarah, how strange, since you say you liked Northanger Abbey. Maybe you should try again at another time. I always have to be in the mood for (re-)reading Jane Austen.
