Oh, Bridget. I adore you. I think any slightly-awkward, slightly-overweight girl can identify with Bridget, and that's what makes her so great. (Plus, she gets the guy! How can you not love that and cheer for her?) (It also helps that this is based on my favorite novel, Pride and Prejudice. His name is Mark DARCY for crying out loud.)

Not my usual type of book at all,  it this was on a list of 100 books to read so I figured I would give it a try.
I found it very humorous and yes I laughed several times. I may have to watch the movie now cuz same thing with the movie, not my type but I will make an exception for this one.

This was the last book left unread from my Yuletide presents, so I’m glad to have gotten around to it within a reasonable timeframe. I definitely liked the diary format, but it does kind of suffer in comparison to ‘The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13 ¾’ by Sue Townsend (which I personally prefer and find more relatable). I think that this is possibly just one of those situations where I prefer the compressed storytelling of the film adaptation, and found the book a bit repetitive and drawn out in places.
