Resumen del Editor

Once upon a time, a historical romance author created a family....

But not just any family. Eight brothers and sisters, assorted in-laws, sons and daughters, nieces and nephews (not to mention an overweight corgi), plus an irrepressible matriarch who's a match for any of them.... These are the Bridgertons: less a family than a force of nature. Through eight best-selling novels, listeners laughed, cried, and fell in love. But they wanted more.

And so the listeners asked the author...

What happens next? Does Simon ever read his father's letters? Do Francesca and Michael become parents? Who would win in a Pall Mall grudge match?

Does "The End" really have to be the end?

Now, with The Bridgertons: Happily Ever After, Julia Quinn delivers eight sexy, funny, and heartwarming "2nd Epilogues" plus a bonus story about none other than the wise and witty matriarch Violet Bridgerton herself. So get to know the Bridgertons all over again - because Happily Ever After is a whole lot of fun.

Entertaining

I found the entire series very entertaining. If you looking for something light and fun. You can’t go wrong with the Bridgerton Series. I plan to read more of Julia Quinn’s books.

Great wrap-up of the series

The stories were wonderful. I enjoyed them as usual and liked how the characters continued to unfold. The only gripe I have is the narrator. I didn't enjoy his performance nearly as well as from the other 2 in this series. Particularly, I didn't like how he gave Michael Sterling a Scottish accent. This was not portrayed by the previous narrator in When He Was Wicked.

I sincerely do not like the Narrator.

He does not give a good enough emphasis to the story and or characters. Roselyn Landor was a way way better choice! I wish she could have been kept for this one as well… hard to listen to him. Had to stop in the first 10 minutes. I love these stories and I am so very happy that after years of being a devoted Fan that I can see them unfold onto the TV screen. However this Narrator doesn’t capture the essence of the characters and or stories.

Narrator

after listening to the entire series read by a woman it was strange to hear my favorite characters read by a man. I did appreciate that he gave Michael a Scottish accent, however. I don't think he did a bad job It was just strange to have the final book of a several book series read in a different voice.

I wish Roslyn narrated it

This was awful , the narrator was wrong for this story .. why didn’t they have Roslyn narrate this book like the other Bridgerton books..

Struggled

I looked forward to listening but the narrator choice of voices was disappointing especially for Dowager Violet Bridgerton. Julia describes her as young for her age but his voice makes her seem old and decrepit.

not the right voice

didn't like the voice please stick with original narrator of all the other Bridgerton books

I love those Bridgertons

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, if that person has read Quinn's Bridgerton books. Otherwise, this little collection would not make nearly as much sense.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Bridgertons: Happily Ever After?

Daphne's surprise late-in-life pregnancy.

What does James Langton bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He is an awesome narrator! What a range of tones and accents. I tried to listen to one of the second epilogues when they first came out and the narration was so hideous that I could not finish even one, but James Langton has saved the day, as it were.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Not particularly. It just makes me smile fondly and sigh happily, visiting those wonderful Brigertons again.

Rerun with bad narration

If you are an audiobooks fan, like I am, then beware. The story is good. But if you've already listened to this series as an audio book, then you have already heard 4 of the stories. This is not your normal novel. The narrator has a gruff, smoker's voice. Which does no justice to the Author's descriptions of the characters voices. Collin in particular sounds like a very angry barrister. Probably should have just read this one on my own. The stories would be worth it.

Love Julia Quinn and Epilogues

I really enjoyed this book because I'd read all the books of these secod epilogues. It was like getting news from old friends. James Langdon is a relatively new narrator for me, but I like his narrations of these epilogues.
