Journal Entry 3 by editorgrrl from New Haven, Connecticut USA on Friday, June 17, 2005
Hardcover with dustjacket received in the mail from mwade78 (with a lovely handmade bookstring—thanks so much!) in West Covina, California, USA, through TitleTrader. (I've received less than a handful of BookCrossing books through non-BC book trading websites.) Right after I requested this, thewhich offered me a copy for my permanent collection, so this one is available.

I read another copy a week before seeing the 2004 movie and liked it almost as much as the first book. I "awwwwed" at the end. Should've read it months earlier, though -- as I watched, I kept comparing the movie to the book, instead of enjoying it on its own merits. I'd done the same thing a few years before with the first Spider-Man movie--I grew up reading all my brother's Marvel comics, so for the first ten minutes of that movie I was horribly distracted by all the things they'd changed.

From Library Journal
This sequel to Bridget Jones's Diary actually has more of a plot than the original, though Bridget is still the dumb, ditzy journalist wannabe in search of a real relationship. If she seems dumber and ditzier here, it's not necessarily a drawback: she has some of the same charm as Anita Loo's Lorelei in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. The novel is not just diary format, though the breakdown here is not just daily but, annoyingly, often minute by minute; inexplicably, Fielding has decided to drop subjects and begin sentences with verbs (e.g., "Is relief..."). Nevertheless, the sidesplitting humor is still present, particularly in a hysterical interview with actor Colin Firth, who plays Mr. Darcy in the BBC-TV version of Pride and Prejudice. The interview is printed unedited in the Independent (and in the novel), when Bridget fails to turn in her article in time. It begins with the incisive "What is your favorite color?" (blue) and "What is your favorite pudding?" (creme brulee). Fans will adore this. For popular fiction collections.

Journal Entry 5 by JvaGoddess from Middletown, Connecticut USA on Tuesday, July 12, 2005
A whole pile of bookcrossing books found their way to Klekolo yesterday!
I must admit - I caught a bunch of them because they look like books I want to read.
So they're now on my TBR pile. If you see this and want to have/read the book before I've gotten to it, just send me a line and I'll pass it on to you first!
Sure I want to read them but I don't want to get in the way of anyone else reading them!
