Bridgerton Collection Volume 2: Books Four-Six in the Bridgerton Series | Julia Quinn

Borrowed this to watch the TV s2.
4 - Romancing Mr B
Penelope's POV, who's had a crush on Colin since he fell in the mud in front of her. About 13 yrs from 1st book; she's now 28 and 'on the shelf'.
The usual fluff, historical inaccuracies, the wrong mannerisms, behaviours, expressions etc. No worse than usual 🤗

humouress 5 - To Sir Phillip
Ch 4 - in spite of the fact it's told from his POV (3rd person) I don't see anything positive about Philip. The only things we really know about him is he's a bad father & wants a wife so he can absolve responsibility & escape to his greenhouse.
Ch 5 - starts with Eloise thinking he might be a good catch because of his looks. In spite of the fact she's turned down 6 perfectly good proposals because - 🤷‍♀️
Not looking promising 6mo
humouress Ch 7 - Eloise is bored and I am bored. Contemplating hurling the book across the room - purely a figure of speech; I would never hurl a book, in any form (except metaphorically).
...
She's left London in haste in the middle of the night (why?), doesn't have a maid to help her dress but did have the presence of mind to pack a bathing costume (which would have been a cumbersome garment in Regency times - assuming that's when this took place?) 🙄 6mo
humouress Ch 13 - Quinn takes the concept of ‘children should be seen and not heard‘ and mixes it with modern day concept of family units; even if you suspend disbelief the book is very confused. Philip is too involved for one and not involved enough for the other. Either way he can‘t wait to marry Eloise and palm them off on her. I don‘t see what she likes about him except that she‘s put herself (‼️) in a compromising situation & has to marry. 6mo

humouress I was starting to wonder if/ why Quinn would satirise the genre that is her bread & butter 6mo
julesG With hindsight, you're reviews are spot on. 6mo
humouress @julesG Thanks 😊. I was starting to wonder if it was just me. 6mo
humouress 6 - When He Was Wicked

Premise: Michael Stirling, experienced man about town & notorious rake, falls in love at first sight 🙄with the one attractive woman he can‘t have (I suspect the author is confusing lust with love), returns after years abroad & still lusts after her. Francesca, whose husband has now died, desperately wants a baby. Outside Hollywood I‘ve never known of anyone who‘d do anything *just* to have a baby. Ch 6 … struggling on …
 (edited) 6mo
humouress The younger 4 siblings barely rate a mention in the 1st trilogy. This takes place about 10 yrs later so F would have been maybe 16? This starts with her about to marry at 20 & widowed 2 years later and the main story picks up 4 years after that (when she decides she needs a husband so she can have a baby) so we never really saw her before. Kind of a shame that John was disposed of so quickly 6mo
