I have finished reading Bridgit Jones's Diary and after many tears of laughter, flocks of excitement butterflies, minutes cringing through frustration and second hand embarrassment, I believe that women globally can relate to the leading lady.

Even though I am no long desperate single girl who fears life alone will end by being eaten by Alsatian's, it was not so long ago that I cannot recall the feelings and fears that Fielding elaborates on so eloquently and humorously in this book.

While there are many authors out there that create these energetic and enjoyable "chick-lit" style books, few manage to create the feeling of ownership that Fielding does and when reading certain passages about inappropriate knickers or that irritating co-worker, you cannot help but think the book is about you.

What did you guys think of Bridgit Jones's Diary? Did you think the movie did it justice? Was Hugh Grant the perfect Daniel and did Colin Firth fit the role of Mark Darcy?

I have since moved on to The Book Thief and am thoroughly enjoying it thus far, I am reluctant to start a conversation regarding the book as a whole as of yet but am looking forward to the discussions this book will lead to.

Keep posted to share your current reads and try to read along with some of the up and coming books I am going to be getting through, it is always enjoyable to share reading experiences.

Happy Reading Y'all
