I have tried my best to behave and read these before I watch season 2. So I have no idea what happens in the show (I say this because it seems like a lot of other reviewers compare this to the show). 

Two very important things:
1) The banter/dialogue made me laugh out loud, multiple times 
2) I was actually giddy over the early romance

The fact that the above two things are true forgives a lot. I love a romance that can do the above, and it’s so rare to find. 

With both this and the first, I feel like it’s wrapped up too quickly. We scarcely get the emotional payoff and it’s straight to the epilogue. I appreciate both Kate and Anthony’s trauma they can work through together, but it still feels like it’s just lacking some meat. I don’t know. Still fun, and I’ll definitely read the next one.

Kate & Anthony have been my favorite bridgerton pairing so far. I love their back and forth. The bee sting scene is a high point of the series for me lol
