~Always a reader favorite: JQ’s Author Notes that go Inside the Story, and Queen Charlotte‘s will not disappoint.

Brand New JuliaQuinn.com Features
~JQ books go on sale all the time and sometimes for only a few days. So TeamJQ built a page devoted to JQ book sales. No matter the format: ebook, print, or audio, money-saving info will be highlighted there (and wee bees will show up in a bunch of other site areas to alert you as well, like below).
~JQ en Español: a whole page devoted to obtaining Spanish language translations of JQ’s books here in the U.S. And bonus: so many are available to be autographed!
~Attention collectors: A Special Editions page has been added complete with photos of the beautiful Bridgerton collections that can be had. Moving forward, if any new collections become available, that’s the page to check.
Nice Press!

THE BOOK: Queen Charlotte — the powerful and romantic companion novel to the Netflix series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story — is NOW AVAILABLE in hardcover, ebook, and audio. Written by Julia Quinn and Shonda Rhimes, this is the Bridgerton-verse’s take on Queen Charlotte & King George III’s love story, and how their union sparked a societal shift.
For the first time online, you can read Chapter One from Queen Charlotte. Then order your copy and keep reading. But wait — what’s the buzz you’ve been hearing about the hardcover’s book jacket?
THE COVER: It’s reversible! One book jacket, two covers. Get the scoop from the authors themselves…
BOOK TOUR & SIGNED BOOKS: JQ is on book tour right now, but if you weren’t able to make it to one of her events, you can still order a signed copy — personalized if you wish — of Queen Charlotte. Get your copy autographed from JQ’s favorite neighborhood bookstore, University Book Store in Seattle. They carry all JQ books, and they ship worldwide.
And bonus: every book comes with a bit of author-esque swag: a beautiful bookmark (one of three different designs — which will you get?) and a magnet. And also, signed copies of the graphic novel Miss Butterworth and the Mad Baron come with pigeons (sort of). Ordering your signed JQ books is easy.
*Please note that Queen Charlotte will be autographed by JQ only; Shonda Rhimes is not able to sign the books.
The Strategist asked Julia Quinn about what she can’t live without, and the pen she uses to sign book is on that list. Find out what else!
Julia Quinn, author of the Bridgerton novels, talks about how she and Shonda Rhimes created ‘Queen Charlotte’.
“In some ways, portraying a healthy relationship in literature is the most revolutionary
thing
you
can do.”
