Welcome to Litsy!

Francesca drove me a little nuts throughout this book.
She was back and forth way too much with what she wanted.
Her fertility issues really touched home for me, I can relate to how she felt.
I love that each book is a little different. Each of the Bridgerton's have a different experience!

I didn't like this one as much. I liked Eloise but did not care for Phillip.
This one did not have as much build up as the others.
I did like that the male protagonist already had children. It was a nice change from the others.

This is my favorite of the Bridgerton series so far!
From the previous 3, I liked Colin the best, so I couldn't wait to get to his story.
I really liked Penelope! I love how Lady Danbury brought out her confidence!

He would speak in a language that only your heart will hear

This one is a Cinderella re-telling.
I really liked Sophie. She was very confident and knew what she wanted even when her life was in a bad place.
I like and hate Benedict. He could be charming and sweet, but he also wouldn't take no for an answer.
I loved how Posy's story ended up!

I am ready for May 16th! This book is going to be clearly different than the series with one of the only similarities being Penelope is Lady Whistledown. But I still can‘t wait for the series! As for the book, it was exactly what I expected. It‘s written like the other two I read. It‘s enjoyable and steamy. I also liked how Penelope came out of her shell in the book and her friendship with Lady Danbury, hopefully that happens in the series too.

I didn't like this one as much as the first.
I found it a little slower. I did really like Kate, Anthony, not so much. I didn't find him very likable.
I can't wait to read the other books, though. They are entertaining for sure.

I've never seen the show, so I don't know how they compare, but this is a great book!
I found it hard to put down. It's very entertaining. Some parts were surprising.
I'm going to have to read the rest to find out who Lady Whistledown is.

I know cultures are way different in history but I struggle with reading societal expectations and when men don't listen to women when they say no to advances.
