In what order should I read the Bridgerton books?
Edmunds sisters, Billie and Georgiana, are also the love interests in two of the Rokesby books.
But do you have to read the Bridgerton books in order?
No, you donthaveto.
Each book centers on one siblings romance at a time, so they can be read interchangeably.
You may get some minor spoilers, but do you care?
With romance books like the Bridgerton titles, the appeal is in knowing that everyone ends up happily married.
That said, I would recommend reading in their intended order.
I also recommend starting the Rokesby prequelsafteryou finish the original Bridgerton collection.
