I'm a little behind with the comment, but I'm with you on Bridget Jones's Diary. I liked it fine but thought the movie was better! That almost never happens.

Hi BJ! I haven't stopped by in a while so I'm here catching up and saying "hi". I liked Bridget Jones, both the book and the movie.

I finished my Humor category with Bridget Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding. This could also have gone in the Book to Screen category. Now I have finished 5 categories and have 4 to go. --BJ

I don't really hate romance. Jane Austen, good romance, harlequin, bad romance. Chic lit, Bridget Jones and the like are good for you every now and then. Adventure with a dash of romance a la The princess bride or Time traveller's wife are the best. I think I'll go and take Outlander ...

... focused on shapeshifters, more than vampires. The Queen Betsy series is a humorous take on the vampire genre - think Bridget Jones with vampires. I wasn't impressed at all with the Carpe Demon series - way more exposition than I like, but to each their own:) Katie MacAlister ...

Even Bridget Jones's Diary, one of the best chick flicks EVER (and I don't even particularly like the genre), was a mediocre book. So you can skip that one, anyway.

I'm reading The Strain and Bridget Jones's Diary. Bella! I loved The Summoning and its sequel The Awakening. I can't wait for the next book to come out!

... and from a friend named India were my favorite parts. Some had me laughing out loud.

#259 -- Great! I'll put you on the list . . . but we did just watch Bridget Jones's Diary on May 2nd. Maybe we could watch Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason on your day? Or do you want to pick something else?

I wouldn't mind hosting on 27/6 or 6/27 for our US friends. I'm thinking the movie will be Bridget Jones' Diary. PS. 27/6 is my birthday so there will be cake.

I have "Clue" and will be here for it this Saturday. I had bought a copy of Bridget Jones Diary, too, but I have to miss that and Rissa's shower - not for not having time off work - but because my kid sister sprang on me a fundraiser dinner and choir concert tied in together. I really wish I ...

So they'll have all the necessary background for reading or watching The Jane Austen Book Club, "Lost in Austen", Bridget Jones' Diary, Clueless, etc.? (That's not my real answer, which is, for the satire.)

35) Bridget Jone's Diary - Helen Fielding

The Devil Wears Prada or Sex and the City or Bridget Jones' Diary are all really well known; I've only read the latter book, but it was pretty fun and a light read.

Yes, there's one. It's Bridget Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding. I read the book last year after seeing the movie. The book seemed a bit flat compared with Colin Firth, Hugh Grant, and Renee Zellweger. It surprised me, because I can't think of any other movie I've ever preferred to the ...

Mystery - no, I haven't read Olivia Jules and the Overactive Imagination, the Bridget Jones's books are the only ones I've read of hers. I must admit, I liked them particularly because of the Austen connection.

Of the titles I recognize here, you've all put together a pretty high brow list. For something not as prestigious, I found Bridget Jones's Diary laugh out loud hilarious. It was like reading my grade 9 diary, except funny and with sex.

I enjoyed The Princess Bride movie more than the book, but that could be because I saw it before I read it. Bridget Jones's Diary is one instance where I loved the book and the movie, and there were some big differences. As far as the Chronicles of Narinia, I absolutely love the books, ...

... me to choose a wider variety of books. As for Jane Eyre, I suppose it's not chick lit in the same sense that, say, Bridget Jones' Diary is. Most people I know seem to consider it a classic. But I'm a bit biased and apt to write off anything "girly" so what can you do! (Hence "neglected ...

I'm currently reading 100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed by Melissa P., after finishing Bridget Jones's Diary. Not liking 100 Strokes, too much though.

25) Bridget Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding I enjoyed this one very much! I found myself laughing, often when in situations I really shouldn't, like when sitting alone in public! Defintitively a fun and easy read, and I'm most certainly going to check out Bridget Jones: Edge of Reason ...

Finished Time Bandit yesterday and really liked it! I am starting Bridget Jones's Diary today.

... The guiltiest of guilty pleasures. For me it would be the Cat Who books, the Discworld series, Harry Potter, Bridget Jones, a small sampling of other chick lit, and anything by Poppy Z. Brite. Growing up it was always Francine Pascal. So bad and yet so addicting. Is ...

Just finished Pride And Prejudice by Jane Austen, which I truly enjoyed. Started reading Bridget Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding, a fun and easy read.

Finished Bridget Jones's Diary..it was a quick read and enojoyable, but i really enjoyed the movie more. 2008 book total: 23 The Twits by Roald Dahl is up next, as well as a re-read (havn't read it since highschool), Lord of the Flies by William Golding.

#15 Helen Fielding: Bridget Jones's Diary It seems like this book took forever. I was slow in beginning it last week because I was chatting on LT on my days off, and had very little time to read during the weekend. As a result, I didn't complete a book in a week's time for the second ...

... sub group to me. Some of them veer into the paranormal romance, but very few of them are chick-lit in the most neurotic Bridget Jones sense, so another word may be more appropriate. I just don't know it.. So far this year the novels I've read that I would consider in that category are: ...

I thought Bridget Jones's Diary was hilarious. I loved the movie too, but I couldn't bring myself to read the sequel. I also find a lot of Bill Bryson's stuff pretty funny. I think Neither Here Nor There was my favourite (it's the one about him traveling through different countries in Eu ...

I posted earlier about Bridget Jone's Diary but I just remember how much I hated A Girl's Guide to Fishing and Hunting, which I hated as much (probably more). I think that I have something against female British authors.

... to EAT. Fielding is more of what I would consider "chick lit," and her other stuff is more humorous and lighthearted (Bridget Jones's Diary, etc.) but this novel both fascinated and moved me.

... a variety of different reasons are Janny Wurts, Robin Hobb, Fiona McIntosh, Raymond E. Fiest, Katharine Kerr, J. V. Jones and Guy Gavriel Kay. Favourite book has to be, "Lord of the Rings" (I did like the films but they are still unable to do justice to the book(s).

I would like to add my vote to: Janet Evonvich (but only Stephanie Plum), Patrick McManus and Bridget Jones. Connie Willis, To Say Nothing of the Dog was also one that made me laugh out loud. Which is why for years it was one of my all time favorites.

I enjoyed Bridget Jones's Diary quite a lot. It was one of those funny, escapist reads. I actually have never seen the movie, but I should. Maybe I'll rent it sometime soon. As for men and reading, none of the men I live with (husband and 2 sons) or work with read at all, even among the ...

deargreenplace - couldn't agree more re Bridget Jones's Diary - I keep on reading in newspapers of people who say they're similar and can relate to the character - that might be true, but I still found myself irritated with the character and the basic premise of the book.

... well, but I picked it up because it had a reputation as a cult classic - wrong, wrong. Don't believe the hype. Oh, and Bridget Jones's Diary. Really hated that too. Girly, insipid and vacuous.
