Oh, To Be British and Quippy

I went through a phase in middle school (that continued into high school, and possibly still exists today...) where I was obsessed with reading the Georgia Nicholson series by Louise Rennison.

It all started with


...which was recommended to me by a boy of all people! And from then on I couldn't get enough of the sassy humor and endless ridiculous scrapes of Georgia and her friends.

Now that I'm an adult and whatnot (or at least, I try to be) I've upgraded to reading Bridget Jones' Diary by Helen Fielding. I love, love, LOVED the movie (which I saw for the first time this weekend) and so far the book is every bit as enjoyable. It's charming and funny...even though it does feed my slight fear of being single well into my thirties...and it's a nice fluffy before-bedtime read.

I've already made my recommendation to Kelly, who promptly downloaded an e-book version for herself--you should too!
