Review
Bridget Jones meets James Bond — result: Olivia Joules (that’s “J.O.U.L.E.S. the unit of kinetic energy”), another character of Helen Fielding’s fantastic mind. In the mood for an easy read and hilarious story? Pick up this book and you’ll have a great couple of days.
After these positive lines I feel the need to say that this is really not a Bridget follow up. For me this book is not as good as the first Bridget Jones book. The characters are a little more flat and two-dimensional and some of the events, especially at the end and conclusion went a bit too far and were a bit too much for me. But, don’t let this hold you back picking up the book; great comic talent as we’re used to from Helen Fielding. Her style and choice of words will surely generate some laugh-out-loud moments.
Just don’t expect Bridget!
