I only started reading these books after I watched the netflix series and Julia did not disappoint! Out of all of the books Bridgerton Series this is my favorite by far. Saying I love this book is an understatement. My go to recommendation (if not this book then my next rec would be Queen Charlotte).

I love these two characters! Kate is my favorite

Excellent story of love triumphing fear and insecurity

Better than the tv series ❤️

Easy reading, enjoyable

Loved

A real page-turner! Highly recommended!

really liked it. i had to get it because this season’s was really good so i was very much intrigued.

This version of Anthony’s story is so much better Thant the version presented on the Netflix series. Both are amazing though! Another 5 star review, Julia Quinn is a genius!

Loved the book!

Loved it! I read it in three days for my surprise…I devour it! After watching the second season of the tv series Bridgerton, I urged myself to read the book because many comments stated that it was completely different from the book. They weren’t lying! But I must say that both are great! Even though is not a loyal adaptation to the book, it has many elements from it. I loved them both individually, but the book was amazing!

I’m so disappointed to find that the Netflix series deviates SO MUCH from the book that … well, I might as well have been reading two different stories but the characters just shared the same name. 🙁 I purchased this book after watching Season 2 of Bridgerton, hoping to find out more of what happened between Eloise and Penelope at the conclusion of the season. 😖 Don’t waste your time!!! That storyline isn’t even here. It honestly doesn’t even seem as if Eloise and Penelope are even friends in this book. BUT if you can ignore the total 180 Netflix did to this story - oh wait, they did keep the Bee 🐝!!!! Then by all means buy it, it’s a good read just lower your expectations - not nearly as much drama and definitely better developed characters than the show.

I overall have had a little interest in the historical romance genre. But after the most recent season of Bridgerton, I was craving some more context of Anthony and Kate so I decided to read the book. I was very surprised and happy that it appealed to someone who is a devoted contemporary romance reader. I think it really speaks to Julia Quinn’s writing that her books have some appeal to people who do not traditionally read the genre.

There were moments I laughed out loud, and moments I was clenching my chest. I was hanging on every word!

The first three Bridgerton novels were completely deleted from my app and replaced with the new Netflix artwork versions for me to purchase again! The books were even removed from my completed list.

Absolutely wonderful couldn’t put it down can’t wait to start on the next book ❤️

I really enjoyed to read this book

Another fun read😀
