Watch your toes, it's the Pall Mall Rematch! Fifteen years have passed, but the Bridgertons are as devious and diabolical as ever when it comes to life on the croquet field. Join Anthony, Kate, Simon, Daphne, Colin, Edwina, and (of course) the mallet of death, as Julia Quinn shows that happily ever after can still be a little bit wicked... and a whole lot of fun.

This was another fun one when I need something easy to read. Having watched the show, I was left wondering what would happen when it diverged from what I knew in the show. I appreciated Kate's and Anthony's growth. Some of it was a bit silly, but of course.
Glad I persisted with this series after not loving The Duke and I, because this was pretty delightful. I loved the MC, though I would've liked more development of the relationship between her and Edwina (and I was kind of hoping there would be an Edwina book, but looks like no such luck). There wasn't anything earth-shattering or unexpected here, but there's nothing wrong with an enjoyable way to spend a few hours.
I'd heard that the second Bridgerton book was better than the first, so I went ahead with the series and it turns out I'd heard correctly. It was entertaining enough, though silly in parts, and made an easy, fun read.
In all honesty, it should be four stars because for a romance novel it is very well written and full of humour. After seeing the Netflix series of the first Bridgertons book I was intrigued into giving the series a try. That I completed this one says a lot about its quality, but romance novels are certainly not my thing. It is much better to look at all the colourful dresses and magnificent decors than reading about it.
