Helpful Score: 3
I have a couple of Ms. Canton's books in my TBR pile...however, âWaiting for Mr. Darcyâ is the first novel I've actually read...even though she keeps me ENTERTAINED throughout...it's quite a lengthy read and at times a bit redundant...that being said it's still a PLEASANT contemporary Jane Austen romance...the story is about three full figured best friends...two actively looking for their âMr. Darcyâ...and one in COMPLETE and total denial of that fact...I LOVE the camaraderie and antics between the women, their men and their extended circle of family and friends...this story is realistic and deals with issues that are going on today such as; health, social status, grief, divorce, custody and family, etc...the full cast of characters is CAPTIVATING...and I also appreciate her point of view on voluptuous women as sexy, vibrant and desirable...so, despite some of the repetitiveness within this story...IMHO Ms. Canton still creates a HEARTWARMING, mature and endearing multicultural romance.
