This is a pretty boring book with little plot and an unlikeable male lead. Plus points for Penelope because I do like her.

Just read on library audio, so it was free. Not my favorite, not much developed in characters.

I needed to fill the season 3 who as I wait until May 16th. This is the only Bridgerton book I’ve read and I’ll probably just wait for each season from now on. Overall, I didn’t like the writing. It felt too rushed in some chapters and too drawn out in majority. I have to say, I’m glad the show is going with a different plot line. The characters were… something. I was thrown for a loop when a certain character acted very different from the lovable character that’s portrayed in the show. I understand that the book can’t be compared to the show but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t hoping that it would be written like the show. Read if you want but don’t have too high expectations if you are coming from only knowing and watching the show.

I couldn’t wait for Bridgerton to come back. I had to see what happens with Colin and Penelope. I didn’t read any of the other books 😂. But it looks like I might like the Tv show better. The jealousy piece is not in the book and I was definitely into it. But they’re still cute and I hope the book smut is done Justice on the TVs
