Rated 3 of 5 of 5 by Elle C
i love bridget jones, what did i ever do with out here

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Majiri Otobo
I think that although i am fifteen , i can still understand and relate to all that happens in Bridget jones's edge of reason. I am now in the middle of my coursework on it and it amaizing how it is such a hilarious book yet has serious messages. I think that Helen Fieldiong is an amizing author and Edge Of Reason out does it's precedor .

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Florentina Suica
I have just read the book, it is really, really great... even the "boring" part about the parents... and especially the parts about Mark Darcy... I really hope I won't be disapointed by the turn-up of the romance in the next book, "The Edge of Reason"
Anyway, the book is really great and the subject is indeed one every woman can relate to... everyone thinks one time or another that she is fat, unattractive and lonely... but in the end we all know that it is impossible to loose faith in ourselves, and that is what keeps us going... and Helen Fielding described that perfectly well.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Hélène Briand
Je m'appelle Hélène, j'ai 16 ans, je déteste lire et mes parents voulaient absolument que je lise
quelque chose. Un jour, j'ai vu votre livre, Je JOURNAL DE BRIDGET JONES, j'ai tout de suite
eu envie de lire ce livre. je peux vous dire que moi qui déteste lire, eh bien je peux vous dire que votre
livre est Génial.
J'ai aussi lu l'age de raison, et j'ai adoré. Je souhaite vous remercier et j'espère que vous me répondiez.
Merci beucoup.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Booby-Sha-Mo-Mo
I am an eighteen year old girl and I often fight myself to sit down and read a book. That never happend with Helen Fielding's Bridget Jones - The Edge fo Reason. I did not know that this was a sequel, but it still was a fabulous read. The characters are well developed and Bridget's train of thought, quality of life and conception of reality are all well portrayed. Though Bridget seems like a complete cook, I felt that (not just because I'm a girl) I could connect with her reactions to uncomfortable and challenging situation that were handled flawlessly and are inspiring to any other readers' sense of dignity.
There are many lessons to be learned by Fielding's book and the underlying meanings are tremendous ... so do read it, laugh and pay attention to the morals, because you are not reading about a weak, insecure pathetic little girl who cannot take control of her feelings and actions. Bridget is (as she writes) "assured, respective, resonsive woman of substance. My sense of self comes not from other people but from meyself."
