Review: The Duke and I

The Duke and I by Julia Quinn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Quinn's writing style is humorous and witty. Daphne makes a wonderful heroine and Simon is not the typical 'hero' but a more realistic character that makes him all that much more appealing to me as a reader.

The scene with Daphne and Nigel where she first meets Simon was hilarious. I loved Daphne's spunk and willfulness. Also, the part where Violet has a "sex" talk with Daphne was quite amusing.

I was so glad to see that Lady Whistledown is still writing her silly quips four years later!(view spoiler)[I know Daphne wanted to have a huge family but I personally don't think I would want to have four kids in four years, that's TOO much of being pregnant (hide spoiler)]
