Re: Im not a happy camper these days...
So, I've read yet a few more pages from Northanger Abbey......and i think Catherine is a TWIT (my new favorite word). Her mind is like a Bollywood movie or soap opera....coming up with the most ridiculous and fantastical ideas that defy all logic and common sense. Her corset is too tight......little oxygen is traveling to her brain. She has trouble reading people even when the signs are in front of her face. The book and plot is interesting, however i find the descriptions of the abbey and its various rooms a bit tedious and yawn-inducing. I have not finished the book yet. Catherine can finally see that Isabella cheated on her brother and it seems she will will soon be reunting with Isabell. Although I have not finished the book, I prefer the sharp wit and clever mind of Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice to Mr. Darcy. I think Mr. Darcy is very sexy by the way.......and Collin Firth makes a good Darcy. And Henry Tilney from Northanger Abbey is not bad either.
Although I don't think that Elizabeth Bennett and Henry Tilney would have gelled well because they are **both **quick witted and sarcastic........they'd but heads too frequently to ever form a relationship.
