Never Have I Ever meets The X-Files in this gender-bent contemporary retelling of the Jane Austen classic Northanger Abbey.
Hattie Tilney isnāt a believer. Yes, sheās a senior at Americaās most (allegedly) haunted high school, Northanger Abbey. But after her paranormal-loving dad passed away, she hung up her Ghostbusters suit, put away the EMF detectors, and moved on. She has enough to worry about in the land of the livingālike taking
care of her younger brother, Liam, while their older sister spirals and their mother, Northangerās formidable headmistress, buries herself in work. If Hattie just tries hard enough and keeps that overachiever mask on tight through graduation, maybe her mom will finally notice her.
But the mask starts slipping when Hattieās assigned to be an ambassador to Kit Morland, whoās just transferred to Northanger onāwhat elseāa ghost-hunting scholarship. The two are paired up for an investigative project on the schoolās paranormal activity, and they quickly strike a deal: Kit will present whatever
ghostly evidence he can find to prove that the campus is haunted, and Hattie will prove itās not. But as they explore the abandoned tunnels and foggy graveyards of Northanger, Hattie starts to realize that Kit might be the kind of person who makes her want to believe in somethingāand someoneāfor the first time.
With her signature wit and slow-burn romance, Amanda Quain turns another Austen classic on its head in this sparkling retelling that proves sometimes the ghosts are just a metaphor after all.
