My Top 5 Favorite Regency/Historical Romance Books

One of my favorite genre in books is the Regency Era and Historical Romance. Imagining those ladies in their elegant gowns, corsets, luxurious carriages and formal speeches is mesmerizing. 

The idea of dukes and duchess, calling them Lord and Lady, attending balls and soiree is really appealing.

I started to get hooked in reading this genre when Bridgerton was aired in Netflix. The elegant gowns and lively music and the chaotic Bridgerton siblings pulled me deeper into this world.

So, ladies and gentlemen, here are my favorite books, in no particular order. Be warned that my choice of authors are limited to those within Bridgerton world though and recommendations from it!

1. The Viscount Who Loved Me - Julia Quinn

The story about the eldest Bridgerton Anthony and his banter with witty Kate Sheffield. The plot is quite simple, Kate is looking for her sister's husband to be and Lord Bridgerton is one of her suitor.  The dialogues are smart, entertaining, engaging, funny.
