Apparently this one's the real deal. What do you think?
The first book to make it onto my best books I've read so far this year list was actually a surprise. Thanks to Bridgerton's massive success, Julia Quinn's name is everywhere these days. And I'm chuffed about the whole thing. That said, my Quinn reading up to this point has been sporadic at best. And I'd only read two novels in the actual Bridgerton series. So I decided to rectify that at the beginning of the year by starting with Eloise's story (the fifth in the series) because she is my uncontested favorite of the siblings. I had no idea what her story held, but I knew she would be a compelling lead. I also love the title and the role that letters play in the story. Eloise Bridgerton is tired of everything. She is tired of the endless inane whirl of life among the ton. She is tired of being paraded around and forced to dance and converse with all the wrong men. But most of all she is tired of being suddenly and unexpectedly alone after her best friend Penelo
That's a lot of *smoldering* going on there, on all parts.
ReplyDeleteIt is just begging me to put little talk bubbles in it, though . . .
It really is, isn't it? And it is positively calling out for talk bubbles, Maggie.
ReplyDeleteI would sooo love to see what Maggie would come up with for this one!
ReplyDeleteBlissfully, I remain in the minority: I so heart Jacob. Even if Taylor isn't the Jacob in my head. (Ah, did that sound weird?)
You made me do it, Angie. I'm blaming you. And you, Chelle.
ReplyDeleteChelle, there is no weird anymore when it comes to the Twilightverse. And Jacob is most wonderful.
ReplyDeleteMaggie, New Moon talk bubbles FTW!
Pretty good - even though I am not on Team Jacob I think Taylor will do a good job.
ReplyDeleteMarnieColette, I agree. I was happy they kept him.
ReplyDeleteI like Taylor as Jacob. I can reconcile him with my imaginary one. It is a good poster.
ReplyDeleteShallow, yet pretty. I likie. That is some serious fog going on. I'm excited to see Jacob in this one thought.
ReplyDeleteJennyGirl, I know. I could tell right away I liked him. So what if he's not tall? :)
ReplyDeleteLiza, me too. The 3 of them like that--it works.
I love it. And thank heavens for a little love for Team Jacob.
ReplyDeleteJanssen, to quote Jessica, "I know, right?"
