I have to say that for a long time reading Bridget Jones's Diary was a guilty pleasure of mine. Well before I was a thirty something singleton, it cracked me up. I loved the Britishisms. I loved Bridget’s bumbling and obsessive detailing about the ups and downs of her weight loss struggles. Not to mention, Daniel and Mr. Darcy. It was pure escapism.
It’s been some time since I revisited Fielding’s book, but my ears certainly did perk up when I heard about her new book due out in mid-October, Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy. Oh, what hijinks will Ms. Jones get up to this time around? Can’t wait to read! And, as an added bonus I just read that Fielding will be at Printers Row to discuss her latest on October 18th.
What are your guilty pleasure reads?
