Bookshop.org and HarperCollins have teamed up to give away five spectacular book bundles. Each winner will receive Queen Charlotte, Romancing Mister Bridgerton, The Wit and Wisdom of Bridgerton, Miss Butterworth and the Mad Baron, and the Bridgerton Collector’s Edition, Vol 1.
Note from JQ: Bookshop.org is a great way to support independent bookstores while purchasing books online. From their website:
Bookshop.org works to connect readers with independent booksellers all over the world.
We believe local bookstores are essential community hubs that foster culture, curiosity, and a love of reading, and we’re committed to helping them thrive.
Every purchase on the site financially supports independent bookstores. Our platform gives independent bookstores tools to compete online and financial support to help them maintain their presence in local communities.
Other great news: You can now pre-order autographed copies of the upcoming Bridgerton Luxe 4-Volume Set. These Collectors’ editions are GORGEOUS. Please note that if you order all four books from University Book Store, they will ship as a set in September.
You can also pre-order autographed copies of the Netflix tie-in edition of Romancing Mister Bridgerton. The cover hasn’t been released yet, but we’ve seen it, and it’s everything you want from Penelope and Colin! The new cover comes in two sizes, trade paperback (larger) and mass market (smaller, pocket-sized). Both editions are currently listed on bookstore sites with a tangerine-colored placeholder cover that says, “Final Cover to Come.”
GOOD NEWS! Whether you saw the show or it’s still in your Netflix queue, there has never been a better time to pick up your very own copy of the JQ + Shonda Rhimes collaboration novel from the Bridgerton World: Queen Charlotte. Why? Today, for the first time, you can get Queen Charlotte in trade paperback.
#AuthorAnswersQuestions: Is the novel different from the show? Yes! The storyline in the book is true to the show, but where the show gives us lush settings and brilliant actors portraying the characters, the book takes readers into the heads of four of the main characters. Four very different voices: Charlotte, George, Agatha (Lady Danbury), and Brimsley.
The excerpt posted on JuliaQuinn.com includes Chapters One and Two: Charlotte’s narrative, then George’s. (Excerpts: there’s one for every book!)
EXTRAS! To celebrate the trade paperback release, JQ has posted the Queen Charlotte Soundtrack complete with commentary for each song as to why she associates it with Queen Charlotte.
