Bridget Jones's diary and in a very fragile state of mind (or maybe my body had been possesed by demons) I bought the follow-up. The odd thing was that I didn't hate this book as much. There was less of the 'oh-my-god-what-am-I-going-to-do-,-I'm-all-alone-and-nobody-loves-me' and more of something you can actually relate to... well almost. There are moments, quite a few, when you wonder if the writer has completely gone of the deep end. And there is still the memory of the first book lurking around in my mind. A nice book, but not a great one.   (2 people found this comment helpful, 1 did not)

By itself, the book was relatively entertaining and has some brilliant moments in (eg. interview with Colin Firth, based on a real interview with the actor!). Only problem is, if you really enjoyed the first book, this one is bound to be a let-down, because it simply isn't as original. If you liked the first one, read this, if not, stay away.   (1 people found this comment helpful, 0 did not)

Maybe if I keep reading something bad will happen to them. Read Bridget Jones Diary instead.   (1 people found this comment helpful, 1 did not)
