This would have been a 5 star book for me, had there not been the whole Daphne taking advantage of the duke situation. It felt so unnecessary, and very glossed over. I’m obsessed with the relationship between the Bridgerton siblings, and I feel the rest of the books will be close to 5 stars!

TRIGGER WARNING

A different element of rape I'm sure the author did not intend to portray, but forcing a man to ejaculate inside you to try and force conception, while he's drunk no less, is abhorrent and, indeed, rape.

So, it was kind of interesting, like, I didn't know too much about the book because I started watching the series but some things are so different. The part's I did like on the show aren't in the book and the part's I liked in the book aren't on the show so it's kind of 50-50.
