Fun and funny bubblegum read, perfect for when it's been a long day and you need something undemanding that isn't television. I'm kind of surprised by how much I enjoyed it considering that I find Bridget deeply, I don't know, perplexing? For someone who's supposed to be Everywoman, I've never actually known a woman who is fundamentally this silly. This isn't the first time I've read the book, but she continues to come off as fake to me. An exaggerated construct for the purposes of humour, a clown in a woman-suit.

And that's fine. She is funny. I just wish I'd spend more time laughing with her than laughing at her.
