Romancing Mister Bridgerton by Julia Quinn
3.0
Another “okay” installment in the series. Colin was frustrating. His best quality was that he didn’t fight his feelings for our heroine (almost ever) so that was pleasant.
The side story was long and there was a lot of complaining done to Penelope, who I would argue had the most to complain about. Lots of fighting and “he bit out” language which wasn’t super fun.

This one wasn't as strong as the other ones. The romance was harder to get into, but I have a hard time with second change/widows anyway so that's possible.
BUT I appreciated the readers note re: the medical issues presented in the novels. I really wish JQ would've done the same for the "melancholy" in "To Sir Phillip with Love."

To Sir Phillip, With Love by Julia Quinn
4.0
Read this in one afternoon! This was great fun and I really thoroughly enjoyed pretty much everything about it. It would be 5 stars but i was a bit bothered with the handling of post partum depression and depression in general but I guess it was true to the time period so i can’t ding it too much.
I look forward to the rest of this series!
