Bridget Jones's Diary: The First Columns by Helen Fielding

3.0

I suspect I may have read the actual Diary many years ago and I have seen the film, so I have some familiarity with the characters and plot. This collection of the columns that started it all was interesting reading, very of it’s time (90s) but not as funny or entertaining as I was expecting. For me the best and most interguing bit is how she starts her entires. I love the tally of weight, transgressions and her own opinion of each one. I’m not convinced her scales work though with the impossible weight gains/losses. Gonna have to read the Diary now.
