I read this after the first film came out so it was not with fresh eyes. Nevertheless it was a nice read something to take on holidays. In my opinion I can'nt compare this with Jane Austin apart from the character Mr. Darcy. Bridget is a single girl looking for love and self critical of her weight not a modern day Lizzy. It is funny but some times has too much information even for a diary. We do not need to know about the contents of her toilet.

Hilarious! Very modern day P&P. Made an awesome movie that I've watched a zillion times. And how clever that Colin Firth is a modern day Mr. Darcy!!! Is it just me, or is that scene of him coming out on the stairs to stop her before she leaves the "party" to say, "I like you, I really like you." just make you fall in love with him all over again.

This isn't the book. It is the soundtrack from the movie version... really enjoyed it. A bit eclectic, but fairly mainstream.

Very fun book. It was an original for its time and has been copied endlessly now. Every cover of every "chick lit" book looks the same and I avoid them!
