Dearest Reader,

In this book you will find all you want to know about the Regency period from social occasions to fashion to absolute barmy medical practices and……gossip of the Ton!

I knew from Bridgerton that they loved their gossip but it’s fully laid out in here! I was mesmerised by their way of life!

I thought I would love to live in these times, I imagined sitting round reading but their days were actually packed, peacocking around and being a woman was perilous….not for an introvert like me it seems!

Anyway, I’m off to promenade and hopefully not get any miasmas!!! IYKYK!
