Wretched, wretched, this insulted my intelligence and I couldn't finish reading it. Someone handed it to me on an airplane. They had just finished it and I didn't have a book with me. Suffice it to say I'd rather be slowly roasted alive than have to finish this book. Save your neurons by sparing...

Occasionally humourous but mostly dull book. It's not particularly realistic as a diary but putting that aside (since fictional diaries are almost never realistic journaling), I found Bridget to be an annoying, stereotypical, ditzy woman whose life revolves around her weight, drinking alcohol, and f...

I think one of my favorite things about this book is the fact that they talk about the Hugh Grant hooker scandal and then Grant goes on to play one of the characters from the book.

Not on the summer reading list, but one I read long ago. I have to say that I giggled throughout this book.

Uggg, this is chick lit at its' finest. I had the most difficult time getting through this book because it is really outside my genres of choice. Normally, I can read some chick lit, in very small doses, but I had a heck of a time with this one.

Funny book, totally believable heroine. The ending is a little much, but enjoyed the book.

I'm not much for the beach read, or chick lit, or whatever this is called, which is fairly dumb of me. I can tell you from hard experience that Gravity's Rainbow + the Wisconsin Dells = EPIC FAIL. (Although, to be fair, Wisconsin Dells – Gravity's Rainbow = regular fail.)I just re-read this by accid...

Am Bridget Jones of state capitol press corps (just without all the smoking, drinking and shagging). If universe can find way to humiliate me, it does.Offered for evidence (from within the past several weeks):- interviewed Governor with toast stuck in teeth- was crapped on by a seagull while TV crew...
