Bridgerton (novel series)

Bridgerton is a series of eight historical romance novels written by Julia Quinn, published between 2000 and 2006. Each novel focuses on one of the eight Bridgerton siblings: Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth. The series is set in Regency-era England and explores the romantic relationships, social lives, and family dynamics of the aristocratic Bridgerton family.

The novels are known for their witty dialogue, engaging characters, and lighthearted approach to the historical romance genre. They often incorporate elements of humor and satire while also exploring themes of love, duty, family, and social expectations. Each book follows a different sibling's journey to finding love, often facing obstacles and challenges along the way.

The Bridgerton series has achieved significant commercial success and has been translated into numerous languages. In 2020, Netflix released a television adaptation of the series, produced by Shonda Rhimes' Shondaland, which further increased the popularity of the novels and the Bridgerton family. The television adaptation deviates from some plot points in the novels but retains the core characters and themes.
