I wasn’t a fan of season one on Netflix but heard the book was better. While I might not have found the MCs as annoying in the book, the things I disliked for the most part still remained. I’m not a fan of ‘not like other girls’ FMCs and the beginning of the story heavily relied on how Daphne wasn’t like other women or more tolerable somehow. I also hate the choices Daphne makes and having read the book I still can’t get behind forgiving her. I did enjoy the bits with all the other Bridgerton siblings.
