Julia Quinn is very good at writing funny and realistic family dynamics. 
I watched the Netflix show before reading this - Netflix changed the plot and personalities quite a bit but I preferred the ones in the book. 
It took me a little while to get stuck into this but this read had me laughing quite a lot lol. It’s not a perfect book by any means and the characters are also flawed but it’s definitely a decent read and that has made me want to read the second book.
