This episode we finish off Northanger Abbey. We discuss a little bit more about the Morland household and how Mrs. Morland is as a parent. We discuss how much we love Henry and the way romance plays out at the end of this book. We discuss how much we LOOOOOOOVE Jane Austen and how she's really smart about her romance writing and letting her audience fill in the blanks with their own imaginings. AND we compare to Pride and Prejudice, discuss future books, and celebrate that we've successfully made Theresa read another Jane Austen novel! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Hosted on Acast.

In this episode we discuss our final thoughts on Isabella - is she a victim, a villain, or something in between? We discuss Catherine's anxiety - both how it's relatable and ridiculous. We discuss our love for the Tilney's, their secure attachment, and their love for Catherine. Once Catherine makes it home after her shocking booting from Northanger Abbey, we discuss the Morland household and Catherine's growth. And of course - as always - we discuss why Henry Tilney is the best! BWAHAHAHAHAHAH! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information ..read more

These three chapters are Kate's three chapters - and we talk about WHY! Catherine has convinced herself that General Tilney is a murderer - and she has to find her way back to Mrs Tilney's bedroom to finish her investigation. But in classic Scooby-Doo mystery fashion - Catherine realizes that she's been making up her own ghost story. We discuss Catherine's fall back to reality - and how being caught by Henry is the one who unmasks the villain! (The villain is Catherine's imagination) And HENRY! Omg - he is amazing. Not only is he a perfect example of secure attachment - he supports her throug ..read more

We're sorry we've been away! But here we are and we're finally getting to know Northanger Abbey. We both agree that Catherine seems to tell herself stories because not much happens for her day to day. The idea of hiding under the sheets to hide from the scary things your brain has conjured up, doesn't seem that far fetched to either of us. What's in the chest! What's in the cabinet! It just seems like a way an anxious brain sometimes works. T is still trying to figure out General Tilney, but at this point we can conclude they do not like him. "Red Flag! Red Flag! Red Flag!" Catherine is trying ..read more

We're finally making our way to Northanger Abbey... but first we have to endure a little bit more of Isabella Thorpe. Catherine is greatly confused by Isabella flirting with Captain Tilney, but much like Henry neither of us is surprised. We get some decent flirting in these chapters between Henry and Catherine. Henry Tilney continues to be the embodiment of sweet caring secure attachment. Who wouldn't want a boyfriend who drives well and tells you horror stories to get you excited to see his family home. T does try to compare John Thorpe and Mr Darcy, but we will forgive them that because they ..read more

Join us while we complain about Isabella being Isabella, while we gush about how Catherine handles interpersonal conflict so well, and while we (mostly Kate) sing Tilney's praises! Do you think Catherine would be the most optimistic goth you've ever met? Did your parents arrange your play dates? Are you excited to be getting out of Bath and away from the horrible Thorpes?
