...Then read this book. Bridget Jones and her quirky little world
are hilarious. There is not much else to say about this book. It's
light, entertaining, original, and all of those good things.
Clearly, it is not meant to be taken seriously, which may be why
some people didn't enjoy it.
The book and the movie are both on the same level of excellence. It
is nice to read the book as well as watch the movie, in case you're
thinking of skipping one.
