Reading this book was so bittersweet because I knew it was the end to the Bridgerton series, yet at the same time, I simply had to read it! I’ve been putting off the last two books, not wanting the series to come to an end, but I just had to see how things ended up for Gregory, too.
After finishing It’s In His Kiss which I adored, I had such high expectations for this book, maybe too high, because unfortunately, On the Way to the Wedding just didn’t quite live up to them.

On the way to the wedding is about the last lone unmarried Bridgerton Gregory. I was lucky enough to literally stumble across this series when a GR friend did a review on book 6 in the series.

Gregory is hit by love and he totally embraces it. He may not have been expecting it right at that moment, but it's what he wants in his life. I loved the interaction between Gregory and Lucy as he tries to win Hermione's affections. But at the same time I wanted to shout at him-- Helloooo look beneath the surface. I feel that Ms. Quinn's focus is the love story and the relationship between the 2 main characters. Because of that I felt the circumstances behind Lucy's marriage to Lord Haselby wer

The Bridgerton Series is over and I am sad.... I loved the series from the very beginning and found the series to be enjoyable to the very last book.
Gregory Bridgerton has witnessed all of his 7 siblings find a love match and all of them are very happy with their significant others. Gregory is content with his life and feels he is at a prime age to settle down with the "ONE." When Gregory begins to feel tingles and sparks from a young lady who is ready to enter her season, More...

Okay, so WOW did I not remember this book much, and I totally agree with what I wrote down there about the ending! I was like, "Ummm... ummm... ummm.... EXCUSE ME???" But it works out. It all works out. It's Julia Quinn, after all! To me, this story was PART Benedict/Sophie (love at first sight) and PART Colin/Kate (where they were talking at the beginning of Viscount). Yeah. :) Cute cute cute.

What happened? I love the Bridgerton family! They are witty, funny, sharp.... However, it seems that Quinn wanted to just hurry up and be done with the series and move on. Unlike the rest of the siblings, I found Gregory to be an undeveloped character. I didn't feel like I got to know him at all. And Lucy fell a bit flat too. When the H/h fall in love, it's not very convincing and a little hard to trust. I also found myself skimming a bit through the self-narration. I NEVER do that with Julia Qu

OH no. no more Bridgertons for me, what will I do know? I really loved this series. Each of them were unique and special for me.
This book had a slow beginning, even a bit annoying. It took me a lot to get to the good part of the book, maybe half the book. But the second part was really intense. That's why I can't give 5 stars to this book, but if it wasn't for the beginning I would definitely have because it was a terrific story.

Quinn is back in top form here - the dialogue sparkles, the narration is wonderfully witty, the balance between Bridgerton family feeling and one individual's romantic adventure perfect. I've wondered what she would do with Gregory because as a loyal reader of the Bridgerton series I did have a hard time thnking of him as anything but a bratty 13 year old throwing food at the dinner table.

When men are around, attractive heroine usually feels like the shadow of her best friend (BFF)'s beauty. So it didn't surprise her that earl's younger brother Hero is awe-struck by her BFF & proceeds to woo her single-mindedly like her many suitors, while treating heroine like a friend. Heroine tries to help Hero gain the disinterested attention of her BFF, who imagines herself in love with another man who is below her station. Things don't' work out as planned & Hero starts seeing heroine in a

The time has come for the last of the Bridgerton siblings to find love...Finally!
I adored the Bridgerton family. Their little banter and their paths to true love. Or so I thought I did. The first few books of the series were enjoyable, if not earth-shattering. But things had started to go downhill ever since 'when he was wicked.'

This was a wonderful book to end the Bridgertons series. I absolutely loved it! I wouldn't go so far as to say that it was my favorite of the bunch, but it was still very enjoyable. In this book the final Bridgerton finds love and marriage, but it doesn't come easily. I would say that Gregory is the most romantic of all the Bridgertons I have read about. All of them have lovely romantic stories, but Gregory just dreams about finding true love. It does kind of sneak up on him, but that is o

Seperti seri-seri Keluarga Bridgerton yang lain, puas banget baca novel Julia Quinn ini. Humor keselipnya bikin ketawa variasi, mulai dari mringis, senyum tipis, dan ketawa guling-guling. Buat Ibu Martha Widjaja yang menerjemahkan, saya kasih jempol saya empat-empatnya buat Ibu. Desain kertas dan sampulnya juga bagus, bikin ngiler gak sabar baca. Tapi well, ini tergolong novel historical romance yang beda dari Barbara Cartland yang 'bersih'. Jadi, peringatan, anak-anak yang belum dapat pelajaran

The Bridgertons are a close knit family of nine, widower Violet and her eight children all famously named in alphabetical order. Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory and Hyacinth. This final book is about Gregory, although not the youngest, he is the last unwed Bridgerton. Hyacinth's story was in Its In His Kiss (book seven).

While I really enjoyed the first three Bridgerton books, I felt that the quality and the fun didn't really hold up through the whole series. This book got back to that a little, but still would not be the first I would recommend by this author.
Gregory Bridgerton is the last child in a family that believes in marrying for love. All seven of his brothers and sisters are married and in love and he is ready to join them. He sees Hermione Watson and immediately believes that she is "The On More...

This book is so romantic!
I know that is an asinine description of a romance novel but Gregory is probably the most romantic at heart of the Bridgerton brothers. This is the eighth and final book of the Bridgerton series.
The book starts out with Gregory falling "in love" with Hermione Watson. She has the face of an angel and Gregory is struck the first time he lays eyes on her. He enlists the help of her best friend Lucy to try to get an advantage in winning her. More...

Having read very very quickly through this entire eight book series I went into On the Way to the Wedding not really expecting much! A) I feel that the Bridgerton series has a fairly spotty record when it comes to Bridgerton brothers as romantic leads, and B) the immediately preceding novel starred Hyacinth, the youngest and one of the most delightful Bridgertons, and how do you follow her?!

4.5 stars
I went into this book wary. Wary because Gregory is the Bridgerton brother that I knew the least about as he was hardly ever in the other books, and I had a bad experience with Francesca for the same reason (and because I just didn't like her). But, I ended up really enjoying the book. It was not without its flaws, of course, but I still liked it.

Oh Lord! This book was a complete bore! I think I dozed off a bit while reading it, only to wake up and realize in agony that I had to read it anyway, not because I was curious to know how it would end, mind you, there wasn't anything vaguely interesting or mysterious about this book, but to actually be able to review it and not have any scruples in my ever-present conscience..

True Love is NOT a myth. I refuse to believe that it only exists in books and movies. Something as beautiful, overpowering and profound as this should be a reality. And someday, I am sure, I will prove it. And I blame this ardent desire to the Bridgertons series. Haha! I am sad that the Bridgertons series has already ended, but at the same time, I am overwhelmed by every book that someday I plan to read them all again, and fall in love with every character all over again.

Ok, I am only slow at updating this because I needed to find a way to be nice about this book. But really, I shouldn't have waited because I almost forgot what this book was even about. Goes to tell you, this ain't that great.

i cannot say i hate this as i truly love it, love it, love it!
the prologue itself made me went mad with excitedness!
however as the story went back to 2 months prior to real climax, i don't think i kinda like the pace of the story. it's quite slow and a bit dragging but as it neared to the climax i cannot but to smile all the time!

I loved this book. What a great book to end the fabulous Bridgerton series! I think it was definitely the sweetest and most romantic story of the series.
The thing that makes this book special is the hero, Gregory. All grown up from his hair-pulling days in "The Duke and I" he is a true believer in love. It's so refreshing to have a hero in a historical that's not all "oh no, marraige-mart... match-making mama.. ee gads... gotta find a wife... what a chore... l-o More...

I LOVED, loved, loved this book. Julia Quinn,is a goddess at writing beautiful, witty, tear jerking, laugh out loud hilarious historical fiction. I adore her style of writing, her genius is addicting. I've read all of her books now. This being the final Bridgerton installment, I felt it wrapped up the series, and the quirky A thru H Bridgerton's flawlessly. A girlfriend of mine admitted to be this evening, that she isn't a fan of Miss. Quinn cause her "Hero's", aren't the Rakish, and S

Well! This book, the last in the Bridgerton series, is certainly different from the rest! The opening alone had my poor heart a-twitter!
Although, after reading the opening and getting into the first few chapters, it was obvious whom Gregory would fall in love with. And also obvious who was at the altar, when Gregory burst in and attempted to stop the wedding with a plea to the bride to marry HIM, instead. And as I read those first chapters, I was concerned that we were repeating his More...

A man who believes in love? A man who believes in romance? A man who awaits the "one"....the one who will knock him off his feet the moment he lays eyes upon her? I didn't know such a man existed....until I met Gregory Bridgerton in Julia Quinn's final installment of the Bridgerton series.

Als Gregory Bridgerton die Abendgesellschaft seiner Schägerin Kate betritt und diesen Nacken sieht, weiß er sofort: Die Frau ist die eine, auf die er sein ganzes Leben gewartet hat! Dass Hermione Watson nicht das gleiche für ihn empfindet, hält Gregory trotz Irritation nicht von der Werbung ab. Unverhofft erhält er tatkräftige Unterstützung von Lucinda Abernathy, Hermiones bester Freundin. Als praktisch denkende junge Frau empfindet sie Gregory Bridgerton als angemessenen Heiratskandidaten für H

Quite possibly this is my favourite out of the Bridgeton novels. It was so nice to finally read Gregory's story after having seen him grow into a fine young man over the course of the series.

The Romance Readers have been meeting at the local Barnes and Noble for over ten years. Most have expanded their reading horizons over the years, but once a month the bonds of our formation pull us back to read and to discuss a choice from the romance genre. On the Way to the Wedding by Julia Quinn was the January 2007 choice.
