I have never watched the bridget Jones diary but I have heard about it quite a lot. But I didn't connect with the character "Bridget". I think this isn't my cup of tea!

Bridget Jones always has a place in my heart for being the first rated-15 film I saw *underage* at the cinema... but I'd never read the book...

It's fun, the diary format isn't as annoying as I thought it would be and makes me feel nostalgic for how I imagined adulthood in a very 90s, leaving answerphone messages and pre-internet kinda way... but impossible to separate from the movie now 😄

Having grown up a child raised on Bridget Jones films, reading this book was long overdue and much anticipated. However, it definitely lived up to my high expectations. This book is somehow even wittier and extravagant than the films with Bridget’s mum playing a more central and outlandish role. This book had me laughing out loud at some points, particularly at the fireman’s pole chapter, despite already knowing what was coming. One small disappointment was that the book has no fight with Mark and Daniel however this book was brilliant so i’m not too put out by this. I look forward to reading the next books in the series

I loved this just as much as the first time I read it. The only difference is that now I hear Renée Zellweger's voice as I'm reading.
