I really wanted to love this book because of 5 star reviews from those I follow. Sadly it fell a bit flat. I’m not normally a regency period reader and I have mixed feelings on Bridgeton. It took a long while for anything to actually happen and I nearly DNF’d a few times. I didn’t connect with the characters and the plot was slow. The main thing that kept me going was the Queer characters and the wonderful narrator! Wouldn’t read again but might pick up Lex’s 2nd novel when released.
