Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. I have committed the most grievous of sins and have judged a book by its cover, more accurately judged a story by its special edition release.

Perhaps I am partially to blame. I had high expectations for this book and the Netflix series lulled me into a false sense of security. But when I came across Once Upon A Book, (a really interesting book subscription service that not only sends you a new book, but marks certain pages and wraps little gifts for you to open as you read). They posted about their new collaboration with Julia Quinn and the special edition of the Bridgerton series was breathtakingly beautiful, and I had to have it. However, the universe had other plans for me, or should I say Brexit. After setting multiple alarms and calculating the time difference and stopping everything to make sure I was free when this copy was released, only for them to not ship to the UK. I worked so hard to get my hand on his edition. It had a holiday in rural Spain, suffering slight damages in transit, but I was still excited to crack it open and become immersed in a sexy, rich fantasy. However, I found it lackluster. The characters are barely two dimensional. The show made me fall in love with the Bridgerton siblings but they rarely appear and when they do; they are flat and rude *cough cough* (Colin sucks). Perhaps this will change in the corresponding sibling novels, but I am not invested enough to read the rest. My petty review, and the one thing I cannot overlook is, near the end of my copy, Julia decides to use the word ‘fanny’ for Hastings falling on his butt. After reading the English rich people fantasy, it jarred me from the narrative and I feel like everyone who writes about the intricacies of English society should know that fanny means something completely different here. In my opinion, this is one of the times where the TV adaptation is much better than the original, and if like me you are a fan of the show, I would keep it to that.
