This has been my favorite Bridgerton book so far!! And maybe that’s partially because I just LOVE fairytale retellings, especially Cinderella ones (even though Disney’s animated Cinderella is not my favorite in the least). But also cause Benedict is officially my favorite (in the books atleast), book Anthony & Colin were very lacking, I love them in the show, but their book personalities had a lot of… I guess faults, that I was not a fan of. But Benedict… I don’t know what it is…but Benedict just stole my heart! 

Especially the moment he realized he wanted to marry Sophie despite him thinking she was just a maid. He proved to be sweet & caring, and willing to say fuck society for this girl that he just couldn’t help but love!! It’s inspiring, and we all deserve a Benedict Bridgerton! 💜

Idk why this man got all mad at her when she’s literally trying to survive. Also how is it better that she’s a bastard than a maid? 😭 but at the same time love should transcend class/wealth. The book is cute for what it is.

It’s not graphic or violent but it can be intense for people who have associated triggers to these things. These themes are important to the plot!
