Loved the characters but confused with the book vs film as seems quite different. Was really easy and fun to listen to the audiobook. Can’t wait to continue the series and programme.

All of the books in this series have been pretty misogynistic but this one is so bad I just couldn't finish it.

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'll be honest. I was really surprised with how much I enjoyed reading this. I've only seen the first few episodes of the first season of the show (though I've watched a few deep-dives on YT), and this is the first book by Julia Quinn that I've read (I think, there are so many historical romance authors named Julia, but I'm pretty sure I haven't read Quinn before). I thought the writing was compelling, and got me out of a reading slump that I've been in. I did get frustrated with Colin at times and how he acted, but overall I had a good time.
