Ich habe dieses Buch gelesen, nachdem ich die Netflix Serie gesehen habe. Die Figur des Benedict ist nicht wiederzuerkennen. Die Dynamik der Figuren in der Familie Bridgerton ist vergleichbar: unterhaltsam. Leider hat dieses Buch aber Hauptfiguren.
Es handelt sich hier um eine Aschenputtel Geschichte. Das Machtungleichgewicht zwischen "Aschenputtel" und dem "Prinz" ist sehr prominent, allerdings wird sich nicht kritisch damit ausseinandergesetzt. Wem das in romantischen Beziehungen gefällt, wird hier sicher auf seine Kosten kommen. Andernfalls wird man wohl, wie ich, hoffen, dass "Aschenputtel" den "Prinzen" sitzen lässt und weit, weit wegrennt. Zusätzlich wären Konsequenzen für die Handlungen unseres "Prinzen" sehr willkommen. Aber das wäre wohl der Stoff für ein besseres Buch.
Am Schreibstil besonders störend fand ich die ständigen Wiederholungen, nichts wird nur angedeutet. Der Leser selbst muss keinerlei Verbindungen herstellen, man muss sich nichts merken, alles wird wiedergekäut.

Das Buch ist stellenweise sehr kitschig und wirkt etwas übertrieben, was mich allerdings nicht übermäßig gestört hat.
Es ließ sich sehr zügig lesen und nur schwer wieder zur Seite legen.

What I didn’t like was Benedict. There were so many moments where I was reading with my whole face screwed up in horror/disgust. He is constantly coercing and manipulating Sophie and there’s a definite dodgy moment about consent where he tells her she must withdraw consent now or not at all which really made me feel nauseous. I like this books overall but there’s definitely some questionable moments regarding sexual coercion in a few of the books. Puts me off them really.
