Summary

Everyone knows that Colin Bridgerton is the most charming man in London。 Penelope Featherington has secretly adored her best friend's brother for。。。well, it feels like forever。 After half a lifetime of watching Colin Bridgerton from afar, she thinks she knows everything about him, until she stumbles across his deepest secret。。。and fears she doesn't know him at all。

Colin Bridgerton is tired of being thought nothing but an empty-headed charmer, tired of everyone's preoccupation with the notorious gossip columnist Lady Whistledown, who can't seem to publish an edition without mentioning him in the first paragraph。 But when Colin returns to London from a trip abroad he discovers nothing in his life is quite the same - especially Penelope Featherington! The girl haunting his dreams。 But when he discovers that Penelope has secrets of her own, this elusive bachelor must decide。。。is she his biggest threat - or his promise of a happy ending?

I was so excited about this book and I ended up being disappointed。 I just couldn’t feel the chemistry and the Colin I loved in the earlier books, was just blah in this one。 I loved Penelope in the Netflix show but was kinda meh with her in this book。 I’m not sure why, but this book was just hard for me to get through and it just left me disappointed for some reason

It’s time for another instalment in the Bridgerton series! This time I’m up to the fourth book, which chronicles Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton finally realising their feelings for each other。 We’ve seen it hinted at in the first series of the television programme, now here it is in its full glory。 The story is full of Penelope, one of the best characters in the series and includes large chunks of Lady Danbury, Eloise Bridgerton and Lady Whistledown。 Of course, Colin is also heavily It’s time for another instalment in the Bridgerton series! This time I’m up to the fourth book, which chronicles Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton finally realising their feelings for each other。 We’ve seen it hinted at in the first series of the television programme, now here it is in its full glory。 The story is full of Penelope, one of the best characters in the series and includes large chunks of Lady Danbury, Eloise Bridgerton and Lady Whistledown。 Of course, Colin is also heavily featured in this book but he doesn’t always present as the lovable, sensitive man we have known him as。Why? Well, it’s now 1824 and Penelope is no longer a teenager but a cemented spinster in her late twenties。 Her older sisters are now married and her younger sister isn’t far off a match。 Colin is in his thirties and hardly ever in England, preferring travels to anywhere else than home。 So both have grown older and perhaps more set in their ways。 Penelope has continued on the same journey and with the same secrets (if you’ve seen the show, you will know exactly what I’m referring to)。 Colin is more lost, not having the work or passions of his brothers and he’s starting to get annoyed about it。 And of course, because this book is set often in Colin’s head, the reader finds out that he’s not the perfect saint that third parties have seen him as。 So in Romancing Mister Bridgerton, we get grumpy Colin, annoyed Colin, crazy angry Colin and lost Colin。 It’s a bit of a shock to the system at first but we have loads of Penelope to make up for it。 She’s a superstar, and others are starting to realise it too。 Lady Danbury is a fan, declaring Penelope witty and clever (didn’t we all know that though?) It’s great to see Penelope finally enjoying the limelight and in her romance with Colin, it’s definitely her that is the strong one。 Colin needs Penelope to help him realise his dreams and find a purpose。 Penelope has proven herself strong and independent multiple times and it’s clear that she will lead this relationship。There are a couple of big revelations and secrets in this book, one of which I didn’t see coming。 I enjoyed Quinn’s foray into giving Colin a secret and the way his secret was portrayed shows that she’s not just a talented writer in the historical romance genre。 There is also increasing page time for Hyacinth, who was only a little girl when the reader first met the Bridgertons。 She was a great character with a lot of sass and cheekiness who is open to bribery and corruption。 I can’t wait to read her story, if only for the dialogue! Sadly Gregory, the other young and unknown Bridgerton was away for this book so he’s still an enigma。 Overall, it’s a lovely cosy read with a great finale that will look fantastic on the screen。http://samstillreading。wordpress。com 。。。more

Finally, I was able to finish this one! I love Colin and Penelope a lot。。。 and woah, I wasn't expecting this book to focus on Lady Whistledown too much, but I still kinda enjoyed it。 I think Colin and Penelope's relationship is the most precious one of all。 It just made me feel so soft the entire time!Full review to come, maybe?

I think Romancing Mister Bridgerton was the part in this series I was most excited for and even though I gave the book three stars, I still have to say that it was a bit of a disappointment even though I did enjoy reading it for the most part。 Right from the start of the first book in the series, Colin was my favorite Bridgerton brother。 I just loved his witty personality and often had to laugh at the things he said。 In Romancing Mister Bridgerton however, I felt like the Colin that was the main I think Romancing Mister Bridgerton was the part in this series I was most excited for and even though I gave the book three stars, I still have to say that it was a bit of a disappointment even though I did enjoy reading it for the most part。 Right from the start of the first book in the series, Colin was my favorite Bridgerton brother。 I just loved his witty personality and often had to laugh at the things he said。 In Romancing Mister Bridgerton however, I felt like the Colin that was the main character in this book wasn't the one we got to know in previous parts of the series。 He was such a serious and also a bit of a boring character and his playful and carefree personality could rarely ever be seen。 I was also really looking forward to reading about him slowly discovering that he felt more than friendship for Penelope and thus was a bit disappointed when I discovered that he was like: "Oh, she's actually quite cute。" pretty much right at the beginning of the story and that they then got together quite quickly。 instagram || my blog || twitter 。。。more

Penelope is one of the main characters in this book, which was lovely。 Penelope is one of the best, most underrated characters in the Bridgerton series, and I adored getting a glimpse inside her mind。 I think this book was less exciting than some of the previous in the series, but there was a lot of good Whistledown drama, and it also spent a little more time on Lady Danbury, which I appreciated。 Overall, I enjoyed it。

Danielle

Tolerable。 Penelope is mildly interesting and at least there’s something else going on apart from the love story。

Joanna

Ok, zgodnie z oczekiwaniami, ale główny bohater irytujący。

3。75 🌟 I thoroughly enjoyed this book! I loved following Penelope and Collin。 They are such genuine, smart and witty characters。

Jen Hunt

Favorite of the bridgerton books so far。 Lovely seeing all of the siblings and characters interact。 Especially fun to watch the characters grow。 One of the best story lines。 Loved the independent woman vibes from this book。

Uma leitura gostosinha mas me decepcionei com certas situações e questões envolvendo os personagens。

This might be my least favorite of the 4 I've read so far - that said, I did still enjoy it。 It just felt very dialogue heavy and very singularly focused。 But I do love Collin, and Whistledown, so that helps。 This might be my least favorite of the 4 I've read so far - that said, I did still enjoy it。 It just felt very dialogue heavy and very singularly focused。 But I do love Collin, and Whistledown, so that helps。 。。。more

I've been working my way through the Bridgerton books and this one has by far been my favorite。 I've loved the subtle build up to Penelope and Collin's story, and it was really fun getting to be in Penelope's head and getting to see that she's sassy and witty even if she's shy in big company and this is the first book in the long time where the ending got me a little emotional, and it was just really really well done。 I've been working my way through the Bridgerton books and this one has by far been my favorite。 I've loved the subtle build up to Penelope and Collin's story, and it was really fun getting to be in Penelope's head and getting to see that she's sassy and witty even if she's shy in big company and this is the first book in the long time where the ending got me a little emotional, and it was just really really well done。 。。。more

When Quinn isn't insisting on having controlling, asshole heroes and rapey sex scenes, she's able to fumble together something halfway decent。 Some of the writing was blegh and some parts were blah, but I absolutely loved Colin and Penelope。 Not only that, but much of this was, "us vs。 them," rather than, "me vs。 you," which has always been my preference。 I can't believe it, but 4 stars it is!

3 STARS。 A bit too milquetoast for my liking。 I thought Colin would continue to be the rakish charmer but he went sour once that love thing wandered in。 I did enjoy that Cressida trollop getting her just desserts。

I really enjoyed Romancing Mr Bridgerton which stars one of my favourite lady's of the Ton。 The writing kept a pleasing pace and had an air of suspense on top of the romance。 We get to enjoy the teasing, loving and protective relationships between the Bridgerton clan that while sweet is often quiet amusing。 Julia Quinn uses a delightfully descriptive prose that ensnares the readers imagination and brings to life the world of the elite and rich during Regency period London。 The intrigue,the scand I really enjoyed Romancing Mr Bridgerton which stars one of my favourite lady's of the Ton。 The writing kept a pleasing pace and had an air of suspense on top of the romance。 We get to enjoy the teasing, loving and protective relationships between the Bridgerton clan that while sweet is often quiet amusing。 Julia Quinn uses a delightfully descriptive prose that ensnares the readers imagination and brings to life the world of the elite and rich during Regency period London。 The intrigue,the scandals and of course the romance。 。。。more

Szerintem ez volt a legjobb eddig olvasott Bridgerton regény, viszont itt az idő egy kis szünetet tartani bennük。 Sajnos eléggé hasonló a történet az összesben。

I was looking forward to this one, as Penelope was one of my favorite characters from the show。 But Colin's conduct in this book really rubbed me the wrong way。 Almost all the Bridgerton males in Books 1-4 are obnoxious and paternal。 Maybe that's just realistic for the times, but this one just didn't do it for me。 I was looking forward to this one, as Penelope was one of my favorite characters from the show。 But Colin's conduct in this book really rubbed me the wrong way。 Almost all the Bridgerton males in Books 1-4 are obnoxious and paternal。 Maybe that's just realistic for the times, but this one just didn't do it for me。 。。。more

Dude I really love Colin。 Or so I thought。 First half of this book is 5 star material。 The first kissing scene? iconic, don't even get me started on Penelope speach when (view spoiler)[ He found out she was Lady Whirtledown and she said something along the lines of "I thought i was different for you at least" I shread a single bitch tear, so fucking good (hide spoiler)] 。 I will say, it's okay that Julia wanted to give Colin depth and him not being just a smiley charming dude, but she had alrea Dude I really love Colin。 Or so I thought。 First half of this book is 5 star material。 The first kissing scene? iconic, don't even get me started on Penelope speach when (view spoiler)[ He found out she was Lady Whirtledown and she said something along the lines of "I thought i was different for you at least" I shread a single bitch tear, so fucking good (hide spoiler)] 。 I will say, it's okay that Julia wanted to give Colin depth and him not being just a smiley charming dude, but she had already made a good job before when she wrote him in previous books; He always was the smart one that made their brothers realize they were being assholes。 That being said, i absolutely HATE this deep-down angry and jealous Colin。 Why do you hate decent and caring men Miss Quinn? You almost had it with Colin, and yet you decided to have him grab Penelope and hurting her because he was of so furious 。Still, the moments Colin was himself (i refuse to believe those nasty personality traits remain after the ending) it was just *chef kiss* and let me say Penelope is the best protagonist of this series, not only so far, i'm a 100% sure no one will come close。 What a smart and decent human being。 Finally, the good parts were really good and the bad parts were also really bad, but goddamit i love Collin。PS: I know what you did when you mentioned Mathilda by S。R Miss Julia, and i was so scared you where mentioning a book worth reading ten times more than your own。 That wasn't the case, so good job。 。。。more

Probably my favorite for its wit, levity and real love。

Colin es un poco idiota, ha conseguido que me caiga algo mal。

This one did not work for me。 I really wanted to like the ugly duckling finding her happiness story, but I just couldn't suspend my disbelief, even within the already very low levels I am striving to apply for this series in order to relax and enjoy myself。 This one just seemed fetched way too far and downright implausible。 This one did not work for me。 I really wanted to like the ugly duckling finding her happiness story, but I just couldn't suspend my disbelief, even within the already very low levels I am striving to apply for this series in order to relax and enjoy myself。 This one just seemed fetched way too far and downright implausible。 。。。more

Mi favorito de la saga, de hecho en mi opinión es la mejor pareja la de Colin y Penelope。 Ame este libro y a partir de este se vio un cambio en la serie Bridgerton que a mi gusto la hizo un poco más lenta en los siguientes libros。
