Lads she’s done it again! As if I needed another fictional man to be in love with and Julia Quinn delivered me Gareth St Clair 🥰 

This man is the epitome of a boy with daddy issues, who I believe and more importantly Hyacinth believes she can fix, and girlie we can and we did! He’s such a fun, flirty man who cares deeply for Hyacinth and all of her views, especially when he deliberately argues with her because he knows they both enjoy it. He had me giggling and kicking my feel, audibly screamed multiple times and I am in love with this man. Alexa, play Taylor Swift I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can) ✨

Hyacinth is an incredibly strong, powerful and smart woman who I definitely see myself represented and reflected in. I was being called out left right and centre! Hyacinth is for the girlies who overthink everything and if they can’t do something first time round, will refuse to do it again! That is so me coded. Hyacinth Bridgerton supremacy ladies and gents and I will hear nothing else said about her 🫶

Shoutout to the ladies Violet Bridgerton and Lady Danbury for being the absolute queens that they are. They are Hyacinths cheerleaders and also the first people to bring her back down to earth and I love them for it. Once again, the Anthony Bridgerton cameo is hysterical and I love him so much 🖤

When Julia Quinn gets it right, SHE GETS IT RIGHT! I loved this book and I’m really sad I only have one book left in the series. If you’re into romance, this one has all the hallmarks of a great one - bickering, flirting and jewel heist, what more could you ask for 💫🫶

é incrível como todos os livros dessa mulher parecem ser o mesmo casal porém com nomes diferentes e mesmo assim cá estou eu, viciada e lendo todos eles. tem uns guilty pleasures que a pessoa realmente não consegue se livrar.

This book is the seventh book in the Bridgerton book series, a series that as I may have mentioned earlier has been made into a TV series on Netflix. There has been only one season, centered around the first book in the series about Daphne Bridgerton, but the hope is that each season will be about a different book, meaning that there may end up being eight seasons of the TV series.

That being said, this book was about the youngest member of the Bridgerton clan, Hyacinth Bridgerton. Hyacinth meets Gareth St. Clair, a gentleman who is estranged from his father, Baron St. Clair, and is attempting to piece together his past and figure out who his biological father is, once he realizes that the baron is not. He encounters a diary written by his late grandmother, Isabella, who was Italian. He takes the diary to his other grandmother, Lady Danbury, hoping that she might know someone who could translate it for him. Hyacinth, who is good friends with Lady Danbury, happens to be visiting her at the time, and Hyacinth mentions that she knows some Italian and that she would be willing to try to translate it for him. The two embark on an adventure during which not only the questions of Gareth's origins will be revealed but also a potential inheritance in the shape of diamonds. Will they find what they are searching for or will they stumble upon something infinitely more precious?

Yet another one of Julia Quinn's books left me intrigued and wanting more. Usually, by this time, I have gotten bored with a series and moved on to something more interesting. But I am glad I haven't moved on from this series yet; I think Hyacinth might actually be one of my favorite characters in this series. She is such a strong-willed, independent, and stubborn woman. And her humor is so biting and sardonic. She and Gareth are a perfect match because his humor is a perfect complement to hers. I could listen to them trade insult after insult for pages. I cannot wait to read the last book.
