I got this book at a second hand store because it has a funny dedication on the inside jacket. I wasn't really that amused but my expectations weren't very high either. Just not my style I guess.

Delightfully daft guide to life, presented as only Bridget Jones could. V entertaining.

This was a short, but funny book told through the eyes of Bridget Jones. It was funny because it was pretty much the first two books combined into a concise guide book on how to live like Bridget. She has always made me laugh and this book did not disappoint. The way she views life; from food and finance to romance is hilarious and could probably make anyone laugh. If you have read the Bridget Jones's books and have seen the movies, then this book is sure to make you laugh.

Haven’t read any of the Bridget Jones books... would I have appreciated this one better had I read the series???

Warning to potential readers; this guilty pleasure pamphlet does not constitute the label 'book'.

A worryingly accurate portrayal of the decay of the modern woman! I will demonstrate with the following small extract:


The Store Cupboard

"A well-stocked store cupboard is the key to not having to go out to the shops too much. Here are my top five store cupboard must-haves:

- Silk Cut

- 4 bottles of white wine
(at least - you never know who will come round)

- Matches

- Canapes (i.e. crisps)

- Not Marmite*

- Fridge magnets are nice.


*As may make one depressed if no bread."


Need I say more?

A funny Bridget who-to... just like all the ones she read through the series.

There's nothing like reading a book and laughing along from start to end and not putting it down 'til it's finished. Helen Fielding is incomparable with the wit and guile of her hilarious style. The only downside is length -- there needs to be an extended manual with Bridget's POV all over it!

Bridget Jones is a ridiculous character, hence her eternal "charm." My sibling and I quote the original film because we know it by heart. It's sexist at first, but has a def feminist twist in the later half. The film, not this book but, I digress.

This book is filled with absolute shite/b.s. advice. True Bridget form, lol. Mostly involving bottles of wine. I can't say it's true to life, but it's like candy or balm or a hot cuppa tea. Satisfying and brings a smile and a chuckle.
