Mad About the Boy

Who doesn’t immediately fall in love with Bridget Jones upon meeting her?

This book is full of laughs, tears, and now parenthood! I adored the other books in the Bridget Jones series, and this didn’t disappoint. If, like me, you like to read about a woman who feels ‘real’ and relatable, this book is just divine.

Bridget Jones is the sister to all of us women who need to hear that someone else goes through such highs and lows.

Like most of the female population, I have a major soft spot for Bridget Jones – the eternally insecure English girl.

Of all the novels, Mad About the Boy is probably my favourite because here our heroine is older and once again single, but this time she has her two beloved children in tow. All the tribulations of single motherhood are upon her, from the school run to the dreaded headlice, but nevertheless she is once again venturing onto the dating scene.

It doesn’t matter that Bridget is, shockingly, over 50 in this book, she will remain forever a girl… show more.
