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.

Let's just say I liked this installment better than book 2 or 4.
Obviously, most readers at the very moment are probably influenced by the popular show, but in Colin's case I feel reading the book first will help getting a real grasp of the character arcs.
Also, great, quick reads, perfect palate cleansers so to speak.

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? 😏
