Honestamente me lo ví para comprobar que valía la pena esperar por la temporada de Benedict y aguantar a Colin y Penelope. Sin embargo, me llevé una buena sorpresa
No se puede negar que hay comentarios o decisiones muy cuestionables, pero tiene mucho potencial.
Más les vale incluir la escena de la bañera pq sino rodarán cabezas

La verdad es que esta historia (quitando la misoginia y machismo) es bellísima. Benedict Bridgerton debe ser protegido a toda costa

As someone who has not cared for Benedict Bridgerton just from watching the show, loving this book the amount I do is honestly the biggest shock ever, I am now in desparate need of the Benophie season and hope the pesky rumours of Polin being the next season aren't true! This was such a romantic and addictive book!

I had some issues with this book. It was a cutesy Cinderella retelling kind of a story and it definitely had its moments but I definitely did not enjoy Benedict's behavior in some scenes.
Besides that, my favorite parts were probably those with Mama Bridgerton who is one of my favorite characters both in the books and in the TV show. She is just the right mix of protective, loving, sassy and strong.
The more Bridgerton books I read, the easier it is to pick up the next one, so I'll go and start the 4th one, I'm really curious how it'll play out for Pen and Colin (especially considering some of the things Colin said about her in this book...)

He was too pushy and too intense with Sophie and blackmailing her into coming to London with him was certainly not the way to make her stay with him.Besides that, my favorite parts were probably those with Mama Bridgerton who is one of my favorite characters both in the books and in the TV show.
