A review by ashiepooh521
Queen Charlotte by Shonda Rhimes, Julia Quinn

5.0

If you loved the Netflix series you are going to love the book even more. It touches what you see in the show aside from Lady Danbury's affair with Lady Bridgerton's father (Which I did not miss) but there are moments in between that are just magical. You get the perspective of Our Queen Charlotte, Her love King George, Her most trusts friend Lady Danbury , and Her most helpful man servant Brimsley.

The novel stayed within the time frame of when Charlotte and George became wed to the ball where they announced their son George VI. From there it jumps to Charlotte and George under the bed where she tells him that their line will continue. This part had me in tears. Much like the show did. Julia truly put her magic touch on it all. What we saw the doctor do to poor George is nothing compared to what we learn in the book since we get it straight from George's perspective. Which makes it that much heartbreaking since you now know what is going through his mind during it all. You can feel the love he has for Charlotte through the pages. Out of all the books I have read so far by Julia Quinn this one is by far my favorite. I hope we get more of Charlotte and George's story. You'll fall even more in love with them and their story while reading.
