Publisher's Summary
When Helen Fielding first wrote Bridget Jones' Diary, charting the life of a 30-something singleton in London in the 1990s, she introduced audiences to one of the most beloved characters in modern literature. The book was published in 40 countries, sold more than 15 million copies worldwide, and spawned a best-selling sequel, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason.
The two books were turned into major blockbuster films starring Renée Zellweger, Hugh Grant, and Colin Firth. With her hotly anticipated third instalment, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, Fielding introduces us to a whole new enticing phase of Bridget's life set in contemporary London, including the challenges of maintaining sex appeal as the years roll by and the nightmare of drunken texting, the skinny jean, the disastrous email CC, total lack of twitter followers, and TVs that need 90 buttons and three remotes to simply turn on.
An uproariously funny novel of modern life, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is a triumphant return of our favourite Everywoman.

Just For Laughs...
What did you like most about Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy?
When I just wanted a light read with nothing too heavy - I turned to this book and luckily it worked...
What did you like best about this story?
I loved the ending of this book. Usually books have a way of making you feel good but that you lost something. This book made me feel good and that I gained something. It was unusual for me, this ending, and yet it wasn't anything that weird or anything. I can't say why because it would ruin the read for you. Let's just say it ended nicely.
Which scene did you most enjoy?
I liked the scene in the bushes. Can't say more about that.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I would have liked to have listened to this book in one sitting but considering how long it was that was never going to be an option for me. I enjoyed the longer length of this novel and how it was so light-hearted. I didn't have to try too hard to understand it - it simply fell out and I munched it all up, with a few dribbles of chocolate on my nice white coat :)
Any additional comments?
If you're simply looking for a bit of a laugh and especially if you're hitting an older age and may be just a little bit single, I think you'll get a few laughs out of this book and maybe a few laughs about yourself in the process. Have fun with it! I did.
