A review by stateofgrace
Romancing Mister Bridgerton by Julia Quinn

3.5

Definitely not what I expected, and not in a good way. I loved Penelope — I loved her cleverness and her character growth to learn to be more outspoken. I hated Colin — his misogynistic attitude towards Penelope really turned me off of their romance. For most of the book Penelope was afraid of Colin and his reaction towards her being Lady Whistledown which really infuriated me. I wanted Colin to be proud of Penelope and her accomplishments. Overall, because the romance plotline fell so flat, I found it difficult to enjoy this book.
