This is the first Bridgerton book I’ve ever read because I’ve been anticipating for Benedict’s season which Shonda skipped this time.
You can expect a typical Cinderella story so there is nothing to dissect or analyse. It is a fun and easy read. But try not to be disappointed with Benedict’s characterisation if you are coming in here as a fan of the Netflix show.
While I adored show Ben, book Ben was infuriating and gave me the ick most of the time. But I had been familiar with that prior to reading this. So I already knew what I was jumping into.
I was mostly looking forward to meeting Sophie, whom was easy to love. I am excited to see who will portray her in the show and how much of the plot Shonda is going tweak for their season!
