I definitely like the Anthony and Kates season sooo much more than the book. The book did help me understand Anthony more, but i feel like the show did a much better job with the story.
I did watch the season before reading the book.

Okay, so I was correct in assuming I would like this one more than "The Duke and I" since I enjoyed season 2 of Bridgerton more than the first. Love the banter between Anthony and Kate that was 🔥 Penelope is my favorite, so I liked seeing her and Kate bonding and then Anthony stepping in when people were being rude.
Did not appreciate the kicking or the entitlement. When someone asks if you can wait a week to sleep together and your response is: "You would deny me my right as your husband?" 🚩No thank you sir
Still prefer the show over the book, but I did like how the book handled the whole Kate, Edwina, Anthony triangle.

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.
