Short summary: This book is about Bridget Jones, woman who is about thirty years old.
She lives usual life, like other women do, but she is not married. Later, she decides to write a diary. Where she counts calories, alcohol units, cigarettes smoked, lottery instants bought and times dialled 1471. Bridget has a crush on her boss, Cleaver, and her mum has chosen her a man called Darcy.
In my opinion, in this book every women, and girl my age(I am 15), can find a bit of herself in Bridget.
Settings: Bridget Joness diary is set in London, England.
Descriptions of main characters: Bridget Jones- a thirty year old women, not married, a bit alcoholic, and can't quite seem to get anything right, but for whom life magically all works out in the end. Darcy is a rich lawyer, who is pretty strict, but has a very nice heart. Cleaver is Bridgets Boss, who is not very sincere, and he most of the time has several affairs (including Bridget) at once. Bridgets best friend is Tom, who is a gay. Her mum, who is always trying to get her a boyfriend.
What I liked about this book:I like that this book is written in a bit humorous way and that there are so many situations like women face today. That means that this book is not a fantasy book.
What I did not like about this book: I didnt like about this book places where she really acted very senseless.
