Penelope and Colin's story is one of our favorite Bridgerton books (along with Hyacinth's) and we were so excited for their season. We had some ups, some downs and some side characters we were like excuse me but why, why did they make our Eloise so mean, please fix this! Overall we enjoyed this season more than last season and will impatiently wait for the next season's release.....in 2 years.
