So, you know, is Benedict toxic? Probably. Yes, definitely. Did I still enjoy this? Yes, yes I did. 

The Cinderella retelling aspect was fun, and just like all the Bridgerton novels, Quinn makes me laugh out loud and charms me.

This one was slower going, but I think it’s the fault of my general reading slump. They’re not groundbreaking stories by any means, but they’ve been a nice little escape. 

If you are not used to early 2000s historical romances, or if you’re expecting the show, I recommend you adjust your thoughts going in.
