    My group of guests continue discussing the limited series inspired by Bridgerton, Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story in this part 2 episode.  We talk relationships, story-building, and give it a Good reads rating among other topics.
    As in all of our review chats, there are spoilers of the series and the books (Bridgerton, S1-S2; Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story novel by Julia Quinn & Shonda Rimes), so watch the series first (and read the book) if you don't want to be spoiled.

yeall ,

This checks all my boxes!

Y.M. Nelson’s Nerdy Romantics is my new podcast happy place. It’s right there in the title. I’m a lover of romance novels across various genres, I ❤️ interracial romance, so this is a great home if you are a fan. And there’s Star Trek too, clapping 👏
