I should have known better than to read this book

The Duke and I by Julia Quinn

April 2, 2021 by wicherwill 1 Comment

Content warnings: reproductive coercion I did not like this book, but maybe would have given it three stars if I wasn’t so irate by what I honestly already knew was coming, which is some shady business around one of my “favorite” pet peeves. I also know that general consensus has the latter books are better than this book, and maybe I will get around to reading them. But for now, I am just going to get grumpy and rage-y about this book. First off, a […]

Romancing Mr Bridgerton by Julia Quinn

March 25, 2021 by Wanderlustful Leave a Comment

When I found out that the Netflix Bridgerton series was based on a Julia Quinn romance series my first thought was “I bet I have a book from that series sitting on my shelf already.”  I was right! Romancing Mister Bridgerton is the 4th novel in 9 volume series and it is the one I started with because it is the one I had.  I do not think its vital to read the series in order- although characters from the other novels make an appearance, […]

I believe it involved pie.

The Bridgertons: Happily Ever After by Julia Quinn

March 7, 2021 by Leedock Leave a Comment

Just when you thought I was finished here. Prepare the fainting couch, because there is more. MORE. Turns out (a surprise to no one who has already read these books, I imagine) that fans had been anxious about the future fates of the beloved Bridgerton clan after finishing the books so Quinn decided to “answer” their pleas with a series of 2nd epilogues. The epilogues published with each book were mere tidbits and demanding readers were not satisfied! I believe that these 2nd epilogues were […]

I am hoping that you have misjudged yourself.

On the Way to the Wedding by Julia Quinn

March 7, 2021 by Leedock Leave a Comment

The last full length book in the Bridgerton series at last! Since the love birds here both have a fondness for breakfast, I will proceed with a comestible more appropriate to this novel. If book 8 in the Bridgerton series were a breakfast situation, it would be a scramble of 90’s Rom Coms with a side of Austen hash browns. Young George has come a long way from tossing peas across the dinner table and hiding frogs in his sisters’ beds. As the last of the Bridgerton brood to […]

Rather the opposite of splendid

Dancing at Midnight by Julia Quinn

February 22, 2021 by Malin Leave a Comment

Lady Arabella Blydon is staying with her newly married cousin in the country when she runs into the brooding and mysterious Lord John Blackwood, a former war hero who turns out to be friends with her cousin’s husband. She quickly ascertains that he is just as attracted to her as she is to him, and cannot understand why he refuses to give in and admit his feelings. Frustrated that he seems utterly besotted by her one second and determined to stay away from her the […]
