I thought this was gonna be my absolute favorite from the beginning and it lived up to the hype. Hyacinth is so funny and I absolutely adore her, this book was perfection. 12/10 would recommend to everyone ever.

Ahhhh Gareth, Gareth, Gareth. Este me gustó, aunque sigue teniendo sus cosas, ¿cómo no? Pero me encanta la prota y el prota. Ahora, el plot es muy bobo porque nunca se resuelve nada: es como un recurso para tener excusa de escribir este libro, pero más allá de eso, el libro se lo chifla todo excepto el romance. Let me explain, la persecución de las joyas no llega a ninguna parte hasta el final y para nada puesto que la hija de este par las vuelve a esconder. TRAMA INÚTIL. Y dirán, ¿qué pasa con el padre-no-padre de Gareth? Pues tampoco nada, tienen una escena donde éste último le cuenta a su padre-no-padre quién es su verdadero engendrador y el conflicto se resuelve de la forma más sosa posible: el barón se mete a su casa. Pues sí, hijos, a tomar por culo las joyas y el padre, al final de toda la trama solo nos quedamos con la pareja. Julia, what happened with you? Yo no lo sé, si no fuera porque simpaticé con Hyacinth y Gareth le doy una sola estrella.

Are these books good? No. Have I read them all? Yes.

I really liked the plot of this one. I appreciated the bit of mystery alongside the romance.

The scene with Gareth and Anthony alone had me in absolute stitches. 

Francesca and Hyacinth really out here being the best of the Bridgerton sisters by far in terms of their stories for me. I devoured this book in a day.

Hyacinth is so full of self assurance that it's delightful to see Gareth have her flabbergasted, and Gareth in turn being confounded by Hyacinth was such fun. I loved their interactions and banter.

Hyacinth has always been my least favorite of the Bridgerton siblings, so I was a little apprehensive going into this particular book…but I ended up enjoying it more than I expected to! The mystery/heist portions of the story were so intriguing to me!
funny lighthearted reflective

Absolutely amazing. Maybe one of my favorites. I love hyacinth and Gareth and their relationship. I love how they love each other, the storyline, lady Danbury, the jewel hunt, and especially how there was no real scandal, no begging for mistress, just friendship and happiness
