Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy (Bridget Jones, Bk 3)
Bridget Jones Mad About the Boy - Bridget Jones, Bk 3
Author: Helen Fielding
Bridget Jones -- one of the most beloved characters in modern literature (v.g.) -- is back!

  • Is it wrong to lie about your age when online dating?
  • Is it morally wrong to have a blow-dry when one of your children has head lice?
  • Is it normal to be too vain to put on your reading glasses when checking your toy boy for head lice?
  • Does the Dalai Lama actually tweet or is it his assistant?
  • Is it normal to get fewer followers the more you tweet?

  • If you put lip plumper on your hands do you get plump hands?


Is sleeping with someone after two dates and six weeks of texting the same as getting married after two meetings and six months of letter writing in Jane Austen’s day?

Pondering these and other modern dilemmas, Bridget Jones stumbles through the challenges of loss, single motherhood, tweeting, texting, technology, and rediscovering her sexuality in -- Warning! Bad, outdated phrase approaching! -- middle age.

In a triumphant return after fourteen years of silence, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is timely, tender, touching, page-turning, witty, wise, outrageous, and bloody hilarious.
