The second time around it's still lovely and such a good laugh! Love the part in which she has to write the article about Colin Firth and keeps procrastinating until it's too late. So recognizable and hilarious! Conclusion: v.g.

Very very outdated (actually this is worse than Bridget Jones's Diary). Imo it made sense having one chapter = one month of diary entries in the first book. But here the months are spread across longer chapters & I felt it made the second book harder to read. Just....yeah I probably won't continue this series (I still adore the films however).

When I read the book I thought the whole Thailand thing was way out in left field. Made much more sense in the movie, though. The BEST part of this book was the interview with Colin Firth. If I ever interviewed him, the transcript would pretty much be the same.
