I love reading about the Bridgerton family! The characters were fun to meet.

The book had its charms. However I was a little confused on the build up of chemistry. The ending felt rushed and a bit miss placed.

I couldn’t stop smiling throughout this book. I absolutely loved the relationship between Poppy and Andrew, how they compliment each other. Very well written.

This was a joy to read. So well written: funny, interesting, captivating. Love the characters, one of the best books in the series.

I loved reading this series now want more. Loved Billie and George super cute and so was little Edmond.

This book has made me love Julia Quinn all over again. I was coming to my limit as I finished up the original Bridgerton series, but this book had me smiling and laughing out loud way too much. Great and unexpected story from the usual tropes.

Intriguing and exciting. Curiosity gets someone into trouble. Then it’s more trouble for the captures. The more time goes by the more intriguing it becomes. It kept me captive through the book. I could barely put down this treasure.

I truly enjoyed the poetic and sometimes stream-of-consciousness language of this book. They are mostly soothing and all contributed to the wholeness of the story. My favorite part is that sunny day in Lisbon, oh, that really reminded me of the old days when I lived in a place with way more sunshine than my current residence and was able to travel all I want and hangout with interesting people...(It was early 2021 when I read the book, it should explain.) Another thing I’ve noticed, as a non-native-English-speaker and strangely enjoyed while reading, is its slightly unusual choice of words. I should have read more than 15 JQ novels by now, and this one appeared to have the most unfamiliar words to me. Although my intention is not to improve my english through reading the book, it’s still very nice to build up my (maybe not so useful)vocabulary with a delightful heart-warming novel.

Absolutely loved it!!

I loved the story. Andrew and Poppy were great and their dialogue witty. What killed me was the inconsistency in the family back story. I just read Edmund’s story. Career mIlitary man marries Cecilia 7 years prior to this book. But this book says he married violet at 19, which would mean he was never in the military. Also, at the end of Edmund’s book there is a reference to Andrews adventures, but now it’s 7 years later before he finds his love...
