I don't really know what to say about this book…  did I enjoy it? Yeah, I did, I definitely liked this book more than the first book in the series, the Duke and I. 

Was this book as good as the TV show? No. Netflix did make quite a lot of changes in the TV show and honestly I'm glad they did. Especially when it comes to the bee scene because the amount of second hand embarrassment I got from that scene… I can't imagine having to see that scene in real time.
Let's be honest the men in the TV show are way better than the men in the books (expect for Colin, I enjoy book Colin more than show Colin). I absolutely love Anthony in the show but book Anthony is… meh. 
Don't get me wrong book Anthony has some really great moments like when he's helping Kate during the thunderstorms which honestly I much prefer the scene in the book to the one in the show.  (also can we go back to calling thunderstorms electrical storms? It sounds so much cooler!)
That being said there was also some scenes in the book that I was like “seriously Anthony?” like when he refused to give Kate some time on their honeymoon before having sex. I also hated the fact that he would not stop comparing Kate's looks to Edwina’s and that he keep constantly saying that Kate wasn't as beautiful as other girls. 
Though I do enjoy the romance between Anthony and Kate in the show to the book, I will say I really enjoyed the banter between the two of them in this book. 
Honestly my favorite part of this book was Colin. Colin is by far my favorite of the Bridgerton family! He's absolutely hilarious and I love that he shows up just to create chaos and then leaves. I have a very good feeling that his book is gonna be my favorite. 
One thing I have noticed with Julia Quinns book is they seem to drag a bit. I don't think this book needed to be as long as it was. 

Overall, I had a good time reading this book and I liked getting to see the original story of one of my favorite TV show couples.
