Hmm, Cotillion is not my favorite Heyer, but I am used to being mildly disagreeable. :P I do like the setup. When I first read Faro's Daughter, I liked it, but now I bet I wouldn't. Perhaps Venetia for her retention of some control of her own actions. The slang is trowelsome in every Heyer book I've read, and I've hit most of the Regencies as well as a couple of the mysteries and one historical. (IIRC it was the summer of grad school before the one in which I caved and began reading Harry Potter. Hugs and kisses for local libraries.)
