Thank you to NetGalley for an eARC in exchange for an honest review
If you're really into Bridgerton at the moment, this book is probably going to be up your street. It has numerable similar aspects including the time period, genre, emotional character monologues etc and makes use of phrases such as 'the mamas' and 'the ton' which if you're a Bridgerton fan, will allow you to pick up where the Season 3 break has left off!
This was a new genre for me in terms of a period drama-style romance. I'm not usually a historical fantasy/fiction girlie to begin with so this was an interesting experiment. Ultimately, I don't think it's for me, but I loved the sisterhood of the girls in this story. I felt that they leaned on each other when they needed support and I was rooting for them the whole way through even if I was less interested in the plot.
I also (no spoilers!) loved the ending, it was exactly what I was hoping for for our brave and opinionated fmc.
