Bridget Jones's Diary Helen Fielding
It's such a pleasure reading a book by a female author and finding out that she can write something to which you can relate so easily. By far, Helen Fielding has done a wonderful job on "Bridget Jones's Diary". Not only is the book funny, but the story and characters being believable, makes the book an utter treat. After a long, long time, have I come across a heroine that you can't not love. Bridget is not just the girl next door, she could well be your best friend...she could be you.
