I was lucky enough to get to listen to this audiobook from my library. I have yet to watch Queen Charlotte (I know), but decided to read the book anyway. I found this to be a nice cozy read. Quinn and Rhimes do an excellent job of shifting the narrative between characters without getting too weighed down in any one perspective. Brimsley and Lady Danbury were my favourite characters because they had the most intrigue throughout the story. However, I found Charlotte the most endearing and likable character and when she was not the central focus I often found myself wondering when she would come back because I felt her personal development was beautifully written. If you are a fan of the Netflix series or the Bridgerton universe I would recommend this read.
