The Wilderness Years are over! - but not for long. At the end of Bridget Jones's Diary, Bridget hiccuped off into the sunset with man-of-her-dreams Mark Darcy.

Bridget is back.

tigger   Review #627 - Dated: 7th of February, 2005
  Author: tigger

As a sequel, and with a recent movie based on it, you might have certain expectations. This book is as funny as the original, but is a little different from the movie. Book fictional character Bridget Jones actually meets the real life actor Colin Firth, which would be hard to do in the movie since Colin Firth actually plays Mark Darcy in the movie!

Bridget Jones is an entertaining take on modern life: Singletons, career girls, Smug Married, and plenty more material that I'm sure many Singletons, past and present, can relate to. The book opens with Bridget blissfully beginning her relationship with Mark Darcy, but knowing Bridget, if it can go wrong it will!
