Book Description

July 1 2005 The Austen Series (Book 4)

Debra White Smith (more than 1 million books in print) presents book #4 in her popular Austen series. Based on Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey, Northpointe Chalet focuses on the scatterbrained but independent Kathy Moore who opens a coffee shop in a small town in Colorado.

When Ron and his sister, Liza, come by, Ron is attracted to Kathy. Oblivious to romance, Kathy enjoys their friendship. Kathy’s brother, Sam, and Liza start dating, and naturally the four of them socialize. Then Ben arrives, and there’s instant rapport with Kathy...to Ron’s chagrin and Liza and Sam’s ire.

In Kathy’s life, the line between the mysteries she reads and reality sometimes blurs. Discovering that Ben’s mother died mysteriously, Kathy investigates. Tension mounts as suspicion interferes with her relationship with Ben.

5.0 out of 5 stars Northpointe Chalet Aug 12 2005
By Rebekah Martin - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Kathy Moore has come to Northpointe, Colorado for adventure and independence from her controlling mother. As a 22-year-old bookstore owner, when she's not running her business she reads suspense and mystery novels. Then on one stormy night, Kathy meets Ben Tilman, a pastor, to whom she is immediately attracted. Despite first thinking Kathy too young and bold, Ben also finds himself drawn to the cheerful, yet sometimes painfully unsubtle, woman.

I haven't read the book this particular Jane Austin spin-off is from (Northanger Abbey) so I can't say how well Northpointe Chalet follows the original. However, I personally found this book as well written as all of Debra White Smith's previous Austin Series books. First Impressions (Pride and Prejudice) will always be my favorite in this series but Northpointe Chalet has become my second choice.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little cheesy July 5 2007
By Melanie Nelson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Without even comparing this book to one of Jane Austen's it still came up wanting. I wanted to like the characters but had a hard time identifying with them. I am single in my 20's and kept thinking that the characters were just a little too cheesy to be real.
It was nice, however, to read a book that was "clean" through and through.

1.0 out of 5 stars Loved the original- this can't touch it Aug 8 2006
By C. Widman - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I read the first 50 pages, hoping the whole time that it would get better. I had previously read Central Park and really enjoyed it. When I saw a re-write of Northanger Abbey I thought that it would be a winner but the juvenile, overly simplistic writing style was extremely aggravating and annoying. I couldn't bring myself to read any further and waste anymore time bothering to find something worth continuing for. Such a disappointment! I'd recommend sticking with the originals. For Austen fans, the Gentleman trilogy by Pamela Aidan is quite good.
