Series: Bridget Jones's Diary

A new Bridget Jones novel by Helen Fielding

Celebrate twenty-five years of Britain's favourite singleton with this laugh-out-loud number one bestseller.

Is it morally wrong to have a blow-dry when one of your children has head lice?

Is technology now the fifth element? Or is that wood?

Is sleeping with someone after 2 dates and 6 weeks of texting the same as getting married after 2 meetings and 6 months of letter writing in Jane Austen's day?

Pondering these, and other modern dilemmas, Bridget Jones stumbles through the challenges of single-motherhood, tweeting, texting and redisovering her sexuality in what SOME people rudely and outdatedly call 'middle age'.

Bridget Jones- Mad About the Boy is timely, tender, touching, witty, wise and bloody hilarious.
