I loved Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell! I've been really hoping that she'll come out with a sequel. I loved the style -- the sort of pseudo-academic-ness of it, the footnotes, just the prose itself. I also really liked Jonathan Strange, and oh my god the Raven King. LOVE the Raven King. Norrell's, of course, a complete and total ass, but I kind of enjoyed his asshattedness.

I also just really liked the world she built. It was imaginative, and just such a beautiful twist on magical Britain. The historical bits, like Waterloo, just made it even richer and more fun for me.
