I have to admit that I would have had little to no interest in reading any of this series if it hadn't been for the Netflix show. I still don't really have a lot of interest in the books after seeing the show, but I liked this season enough that I wanted to see how it compared to the book. For the most part I was entertained, but something about it just translates better to screen, and that's not something I say very often. I enjoyed the book for the fluff it was, but I don't see myself being in a rush to buy the rest of the series.

I'd only watched the show before this, but I wanted to see how different the book was because I liked parts of their season, but it wasn't as good as I'd hoped. Idk the characterization made Colin feel much younger than he was supposed to be (like his random anger issues). It was fine for a romance book, but just not really my cup of tea.

Okay, I know this is a scandalous thought, but I really do prefer the show in many regards. The Bridgerton boys are just all more insufferable in the books and require much more forgiveness (from their ladies and the readers). 

BUT, this was still fun, and I really enjoy Penelope. I definitely identify with her the most of any of the female protagonists. 

These always make me laugh out loud which I enjoy. I’m not leaving extremely wowed or emotional but this was entertaining nonetheless. They probably deserve 3 stars but I’m giving them 4 for fun anyway. 

And the mirror bit? 😏
