Publisher Description
The iconic #1 bestseller by Helen Fielding and basis for the films starring Renee Zellweger, Colin Firth, Patrick Dempsey and Emma Thompson. Bridget Jones's Diary is the devastatingly self-aware, laugh-out-loud account of a year in the life of a thirty-something Singleton on a permanent doomed quest for self-improvement. Caught between the joys of Singleton fun, and the fear of dying alone and being found three weeks later half eaten by an Alsatian; tortured by Smug Married friends asking, "How's your love life?" with lascivious, yet patronizing leers, Bridget resolves to: reduce the circumference of each thigh by 1.5 inches, visit the gym three times a week not just to buy a sandwich, form a functional relationship with a responsible adult and learn to program the VCR. With a blend of flighty charm, existential gloom, and endearing self-deprecation, Bridget Jones's Diary has touched a raw nerve with millions of readers the world round. Read it and laugh—before you cry, "Bridget Jones is me!"

"Soooooooooo hilarious! I loved these books so much I then struggled with the film, but then that's always the way for me. Bridget is fab, so real and honest and it's fantastic to live her lie with her through her diary. So easy to pick up and put down...but you very soon want to pick it back up again! Fab read."

" This book is full of humor, but it's diary-style writing was too much. I didn't think it would be the ENTIRE book. Got a bit boring at certain parts. Just watch the movie and save some time. "

" niet uitgelezen, het enige dat ik kon denken was: stop met drinken, stop met roken en stop vooral met zagen. Mss omdat het in dagboek stijl was dat ik het niet zo leuk vond, al zijn er andere boeken zoals 'The Wild Girl' die wel de moeite waard zijn. "
