Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy | 
pickWe meet Bridget in this book widowed and in her fifties and it wasn't long until I fell into the swing of things and laughed out loud at Bridget and her continuous muddled confusion.
I really liked Roxster as a character. His and Bridget's dialogue was such a hoot, it was so visual. I hope there's more of him going forward even though I fully admit he isn't good for her.

Thanks for the tag, @Eggs ❄️
1. Addie LaRue, but I wouldn't remember her anyway.🥴
2. I love her like an old friend. But from the last book I read, tagged, Bridget Jones made me crazy.
3. Litsy and the littens💗
How have I not read this till now?? Listening to the audiobook and Renee Zellwegger and Colin Firth flitting through my imaginiation. V Scrumptious
pickThis was such a fun read! Very sexy... And then of course ended sweetly and perfectly, while also dealing with real issues and emotional growth. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I'm so confused. Is this Bridget Jones's blunder, repeatedly calling Chekhov the author of Hedda Gabler and calling him Norwegian, or is it Helen Fielding's error that no editor picked up? Maybe I'll find out later?
so-soI read the Bridget Jones series and watched the movies, and liked them. This book takes years after The Edge of Reason, and tragedy has struck Bridget. I will say...I didn't enjoy this book like I did the others. The scenes with her kids were really cute and so Bridget 😄 HOWEVER, this wasn't so engrossing that I couldn't put it down.
pickIt felt like catching up with an old friend I hadn't spoken to in a long time....but she still hasn't gotten her sh!t together!! Dang Bridget! You got kids now, and being a single mother you gotta do better. She stressed me out! But it was a good read. Will be picking up the fourth book.
pickBridget back to her best despite the absence of Mark. Loved every page. It‘s laugh out loud funny
After a little house work, I‘m hoping to finish ONE of these books. I‘m not very far into any of them and I think 3 is slowing me down. Felt like I‘ve been reading them for forever! 🤞🏼😁
Reading in bed after a long week is perfect! Hope everyone is having a great Sunday! 😄
#wanderingjune @Cinfhen @BarbaraBB When I think of #londoncalling I think of Bridget Jones, one of my favourite series.
Listening to the tagged book while working away on my #bulletjournal. A few short days ago, I was 14 months behind, and now I only have 1 page to finish up! Other than that I just have all my #MayMadness pages to prep. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 I would be lying if I said I didn‘t feel pretty accomplished right now. ☺️

Hello Litsy,
Sunday question! Is there a book or even several books that you usually reread every year?
For me, it‘s the two Bridget Jones books, The Book Thief and a Christmas Story by Charles Dickens.

Maybe I am wrong but I think that‘s the cafe where Bridget Jones often met with her friends? It‘s right next to St. Paul‘s Cathedral.

pickThis was entertaining, full of homorous lines, and I could read in one sitting.
1. Romantic comedy (Bridget Jones really helped last week!) or Stephen King
2. Worked at an ice cream shop
3. Sales rep for a musical instrument company (flutes specifically)
4. Actress
5. Coffee

Yay on hitting 10k @Christine11 that‘s so awesome. I‘m not sure why but the only book I could think of that brings me utter joy is Bridget Jones diary. I seriously, with all my heart, love this book and it makes me so happy when I read or watch it. #joyfulbookgiveaway
Bridget Jones showing up to what she thinks is a Tarts and Vicars party. (Another movie I really like.)

4️⃣ I‘m 3 books 📚 behind schedule according to Goodreads but I‘ll hope I can make it😇
5️⃣ will do!

To many white bad boys ugh.
so-soI've read the last one of the Bridget Jones series. I don't know but the whole book was quite foreseeable. I didn't like it as much as the first one.

I think Bridget sums up my thoughts precisely.
I liked this book, though I wouldn't say I was mad about it. #madworld #lyricalapril

This was one of my favourite Bridget Jones books. Gave me #allthefeels. Would love to see it turned into a movie, but don't know if they ever will.
I mean, who doesn't read and reread the Bridget Jones' books?!!!
Weight 138. Calories consumed 1,000 estimated. Small cokes consumed 2. Tea consumed 3. Things checked off of to-do list 1.5. Time spent making to-do list 1 hour. Time spent doing to-do list 5 hours. Time spent watching American football 3 hours.
panSällan läser man om en så dåligt uppbyggd karaktär. En 50årig, ensamstående Bridget med två små barn, kunde varit liiiiite förnuftigare och enda behållit sin charm. Författaren har förlöjligat henne så pass mycket att jag har svårt att se att någon kan känna igen sig i Bridget och tycka hon är rolig. Sorglig utveckling av en tidigare älskad karaktär.
These were the only books with #orangecovers on my shelves. I am not really a big fan of orange in general, and maybe it translates a bit to my book buying habits 😄

Just picked this up from the library so I can bring it with me to KY! It's bigger than I thought it'd be, so there might be a change of carry-on bag...
so-soThree stars for nostalgia. Poor Bridget is still hilariously hopeless but truth be told it's time for her to grow up. As a reader, I have changed and think it was time for her character to evolve.
One of those sequels that is living on the coat tails of its predecessors.
What I'm reading while listening to my boys play at my feet. #mommytime
pickLooking at the shelf of goodies in the staff room reminds me of this book because Bridget always notates what she eats with calorie count which makes me chuckle. Best to read if you've read the others BUT that said, I loved the audiobook which I downloaded from Overdrive through my library!
Download from Overdrive and listening as I drive. Makes me laugh out loud!
so-soEven though there were a lot of places where the story dragged, the text/twitter exchanges didn't translate well into the audio version, and the elements of the absurd that Mark Darcy cherished about our Bridget became cliche slapstick in nature, Fielding still manages to deliver a poignant portrait of womanhood and widowhood for women in middle age. I am also v. disturbed that I am closer in age to widow Bridget instead of spinster Bridget.
Sometimes look @ billboards of beautiful models, & the real people underneath, & think it's a bit like if we were on a planet where all the space creatures were short, green & fat. Except a very few of them were tall, thin & yellow. And all the advertising was of the tall, yellow ones, airbrushed to make them even taller & yellower. So all the little green space creatures spent their whole time feeling sad because they weren't tall, thin & yellow.
pickI really enjoyed this. Here's my full review http://www.kellyflorentia.co.uk/blog/4584218616/Book-Review---Bridget-Jones-Mad-...
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️ At the moment I'm feeling pretty emotional that this is the last book in the series. I will absolutely miss Bridget's humour and disastrous life. That being said, I didn't enjoy this one as much as the other two. I longed for Mark Darcy but did enjoy experiencing B as a mother.
I've heard this is horrible. Can't wait!
At least Bridget hasn't lost her sense of humor.
pickThese books are amazing. Bridget is absolutely insane, like me. You can't help but get annoyed yet love her.
