The One In Which Katy Actually Takes the Time To Write Words of Disgust on How Her Girl Eloise Was Done Dirty
This could’ve been so epic with the pen pal idea. But Eloise NEVER would have ran away from her family on a whim because she was jealous of Penelope? That’s silly.
Sir Phillip needs some self-work before he finds a mother for his children. And as a feminist, or at least someone who kind of bucks the system a little as a spinster with six engagement rejections, Eloise would never choose someone who just wants to marry someone so his children with have a mother and who doesn’t see her as something more than a baby tender.
Amanda and Oliver were desperate for attention and this book should come with trigger warnings for child abuse with the description of how that nurse was beating them.

I liked this book, but I didn't love it. The previous Bridgerton books spoke more to me than this one did. Don't get me wrong: it wasn't bad at all, but it was just not completely what I expected. Eloise is one of my favourite Bridgerton siblings, so my expectations were a lot higher. I loved the beginning of the book, but I found it a bit boring after a while. The end made up for it in some way, but it wasn't enough for me.
Also: the s*x-scenes were so unrealistic, reading this as woman. Women don't 'explode', as described by Quinn, as easy or at all in the way the couple made love. I would have loved a more realistic representation.
