The youngest Bridgerton tries to solve a mystery, Lady Danbury makes another appearance in this book!  It’s been quite a few years since the events of the first book, and Lady Danbury is that much older.  Hyacinth, the youngest Bridgerton sibling, has taken to reading to the formidable woman once a week. She called them “a herd of mentally deficient sheep,” which is completely awesome. This book was so ... blah. (Edit: after reading The Duke and I, this epilogue was fine, I guess, and mildly interesting.) As in the shit one.

I really loved Benedict and how he always felt looked over because he was just the second Bridgerton. And the hero was such an ASS. Also, we learn that Julia Quinn can write quite well when she puts her mind to it and isn’t trying to crank out novel after novel in quick succession.  Colin’s journal passages are quite good, at least in my opinion. First Comes Scandal: A Bridgerton Prequel. and this is more of a comparison to the show than a straight review.  Also, One of the first big differences I picked out is that Simon’s nurse helps him with his speech, Francesca decides that she wants a child, so she therefore has to get married again.  Michael is not pleased, but she obviously can’t marry him, because that would be weird, as he would be taking over. Bridgerton 04: 2nd Epilogue - Romancing Mister Bridgerton. Simon and Daphne reveal their plan to Anthony. (At this point, I’m still not convinced that Lucy wouldn’t be happy with the first guy, issues aside.  Yes, she thinks she loves Gregory, but how long has she really known him?  And the first guy really isn’t all that bad, aside from his shit father.  Gregory seems to fall in love fairly easily, which is suspect to me at least.  At least his siblings got more time to get to know their future spouses before declaring themselves. ‎Sophie Beckett never dreamed she'd be able to sneak into Lady Bridgerton's famed masquerade ball, or that ‘Prince Charming’ would be waiting there for her! Also devastated was Michael Stirling, John’s cousin and best friend.  Michael loved John like a brother, and was therefore ashamed to be in love with his wife.  John and Francesca didn’t know this of course, no one did.  And it comes as a blow when John dies and Michael basically inherits his life.  To grief and remove himself from temptation, Michael leaves and goes off to India for a few years, leaving Francesca to run the estate.  But Michael has to come home eventually. Â. Francesca decides that she wants a child, so she therefore has to get married again.  Michael is not pleased, but she obviously can’t marry him, because that would be weird, as he would be taking over way too much of his cousin’s life.  But then he basically gets permission from Colin, I think?  Anyway, Francesca runs home to her estate, and Michael follows her, and things get spicy. A while later (months, years, I don’t remember) Benedict meets Sophie again, only she’s not dressed as a lady this time.  He can swear he remembers her from somewhere, but doesn’t recognize her as his lost love from that magical night.  Sophie is kind of upset about this, because she’s been dreaming of him ever since the party.  (Hey, it’s kind of like when you see someone somewhere all the time, and then you see them somewhere else in an entirely different context, and your brain can’t handle it.  Like little kids seeing their teachers out in the wild.) Shitty parent scale – this one is kind of different from the other ones in that no one has a shitty parental figure, they just have dead ones.  Anthony has major daddy issues, but it’s not because he was a bad father.  Kate also has issues from her mother, but again, it’s not her mother’s fault.

February 10, 2021. #1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn loves to dispel the myth that smart women don't read (or write) romance, and and if you watch reruns of the game show The Weakest Link you might just catch her winning the $79,000 jackpot. Really enjoyed this book as well. Of the nine stories in here, I was really only looking for about half of them after I had finished the books.  Benedict’s epilogue about Posy was a delightful surprise, and Hyacinth’s was a nice continuation of the original ending.  Francesca’s epilogue is the one I feel should have been included in the original story.  Violet’s story could have been included in Anthony’s original book, or Daphne’s for that matter, or I suppose Gregory’s even.  But it’s good that it’s finally, .  And Colin’s epilogue could have taken place during or after Eloise’s book.  I could have gone without the second epilogues for Daphne, Anthony, Eloise, and Gregory though.    I mean, they were nice enough, but I wasn’t looking for the information they provided.

The first three books happen in around the same time-frame, within a few years of each other at least.  But the books of the second trio of Penelope, Eloise, and Francesca all happen simultaneously.  Events that happen in Eloise’s story are mentioned here, and it’s kind of funny.

Also, the whole Bridgerton family is supposed to have the same hair color, while Daphne’s (and Gregory’s at the moment) are decidedly lighter in the show. (One of Simon’s middle names is Fitzranulph, lol), One of the first big differences I picked out is that Simon’s nurse helps him with his speech impediment, not Lady Danbury.  Simon’s father is still a complete shit.  (Lady Danbury was still a part of his life, just not in the same role as the show.). I mean, there was no official pardon or anything, but a lot of those doctors were never charged... “Nobody had told them to say the fair was not at home.”.
