So I was very recently given a swag-bag full of hard back copies of classics and lesser known stabs at fiction to rifle through and find new adventures within the coffee-stained pages and new loves. There was a selection of at least a dozen assorted books in a heap, all different genres and plots but I decided variety is the spice of life, right? (Plus, I love good novel however if there is a cheeky vampire romance, I'm not exactly going to say no)
If you're a reader similar to me then you'll be reading three books within a week, hard backs are easy reading in my opinion, something to keep my creative juices flowing whenever I'm low on inspiration for blogging, writing, learning, living.
So to dig in to all the fictional goodies I started off with one dinger of a good-hearted, comedy classic: Bridget Jones Diary: The Edge of Reason by -, this is because curiosity got the cat in this instance, I'd absolutely loved the two remake films and the original novel and wanted to see if this one could make me laugh and relate (most embarrassingly) as I did in the films and previous book.
If no one has read or seen Bridget Jones Diary then you a missing out on a good belly ache of comedy gold. It's fundamentally about a 30 something British woman going through a patch in her life where there are changes in the romance, weight, friendship, career area that reflects honesty and clarity. She is awkward, impulsive, un-decided and a wonderful flurry of a female. It is relatable to the younger and older generation of females as it shows the inner struggles women have to be accepted in a male dominated modern world, to be accepted in their friendship group and just in general trying to find long lasting love. There is no polished off edges in these books, they uncover the reality of living away from parents, sex/one night stands and trying to make it in a dead end job but through the view of one with a wicked sense of humour.
Read this one, it's a cracker, you'll feel liberated and understood at the very same time!
Until I speak again, keep rad.
Mads.
