I have found this to work to give more book style paragraphs:

p.firstpar {
  margin-top: 0;
  text-indent: 2em;

}
p.nextpar {
  margin-top: -1em;
  text-indent: 2em;
  padding: 0 5px 0 5px;
}

using the em ("M") unit, rather than px unit, it makes the style independent of the font-size. Padding goes in that order: top, right, bottom, left.
