One of my favorites of the series! Gregory is a much more likable protagonist than his brothers are (which I feel might have more to do with Julia Quinn's evolution through writing) and there's much less blatant sexism which is nice. There is sexism, of course, but it's primarily from the bad characters. I also loved Lucy (but I do love all of the Bridgerton female love interests). She was an incredibly sweet heroine and one that you just really wanted to root for. Their love really came out in the book, and they became one of my favorite couples in the series. 

Also, the first 75% of the book is set at such a leisurely pace, so the ending is incredibly exciting to read.
