I finished Northanger Abbey, but i really wasn't amazed by it. It was my first jane austen and i have to say i liked her writing style, so it was good for learning i should pick up more jane austen.

Kim, if you want to link to the page of a specific book or author, you can use the "add book/author" option just above the field where you type your comment.

For other links you can use: [a href="http://www.goodreads.com" ]my link text[/a]
and replace the [ by < and ] by >

I hope this makes sense, please let me know if you have further questions :)
