One of the things I love about Jane Austen books is her lack of physical character descriptions. In Pride an Prejudice she doesn't really tell you what any of the characters look like so as a reader you can build up your own picture. Though it is hard to get away with not thinking Darcy looks like Colin Firth. Also in general she doesn't go into too much description of the settings. I found that a relief when I read her as it is something that I find hard to balance, settings, descriptions, too much details and keeping the story going when I write.
I do like classic romance novels and love new takes on them with twists. If I'm in the mood for a quick, easy, feel good story. Especially in times when my real life is stressed. Nothing like a bit of escapism.
Cristabell, I loved a Man Like Mac because there is something in the story which shows the reality of his disability and very un-mills and boons and I think she actually retaliates herself in kind.
