Romancing Mr Bridgerton by Julia Quinn
4.0
4 stars. I really liked this book. I like friends to lovers and I am compelled at the progression of their love as It was great to read their banter and conversation. However, I did not like that Pen lost weight. Her losing weight and THEN having Colin fall in love with her after reinforces the narrative that plus-sized and mid-sized women are not desirable when that is SO not true.
I liked Colin and it was nice to understand him better. I think I liked him better than the other MMCs I’ve read in this series… (sorry Anthony. I’m a ride or die for TV Anthony). The same goes for Pen too. I found her relatable and it was nice to see her have her own business)
Colin was annoying tho. He became cold due to his own insecurities instead of telling his soon to be wife the issue. JUST TELL HER MAN. But I was also compelled at the end his solution to Pen’s exposed identity. It really showed her that he loved her.
This was a fine book, but I’ve read 3 of this series and I find that Julia Quinn’s books aren’t that strong compared to other romance series. I feel like they are all lacking something. (Don’t ask me what that is)
I know season 3 will be great and better than the book. So excited!!
