Celebrate Jane Austen’s 250th birthday by reading and discussing her novels. We’ll read one book each month until the big Jane Austen birthday festival in December!
Join us in discussing Jane Austen's fifth published novel, "Northanger Abbey." Let your imagination run wild with Catherine Morland, the young and naïve heroine whose journey of self-knowledge and understanding others is dotted with love, friendship and a few good gothic novels.
Print copies of the book are available at our branches. Many eBooks are available on CloudLibrary, Libby or Hoopla; find eAudiobooks on Blackstone Unlimited, Libby, or Hoopla.
