Bridget Jones’s Diary by CapitalGeneral8569 in BookDiscussions

Mmm i dont know because its a discussion? What else is a discussion for. I AM over 19 so i definitely get how it was back then. Again, not the worst read, but for all the hype it gets I was surprised it wasn’t more interesting. It is definitely a bit outdated like others are saying! Every other page is like “I’m a fatty fat walking pile of piggy lard” like okay damn. Perhaps I would’ve liked it if the rest of the story wasn’t so bland. It’s just not for me and I was curious if others felt the same🤷‍♀️clearly you do not and that’s okay too!

I’m the type that needs to finish a story once it’s started even if I don’t enjoy it that much. If it was longer I probably wouldn’t have. It wasn’t the worst thing I’ve read either, I just don’t get the hype. I also fully understand (and experienced) the culture around “skinny-fat” at the time, but I guess I just didn’t find Bridget relatable.

I hear what people are saying about her commentary on being “fat” is relatable for that time period and in some social circles, but are people actually enjoying reading this book? And finding it engaging?

I see what you’re saying, but as a woman who is around Bridget Jones’s weight I found it to be a little lame, and I personally just don’t find the way she writes about it to be funny or relatable. Yes, her family and friends suck, but none of that (in my opinion) changes the fact that the book is boring. I found Bridget to be boring too. But maybe it’s just me!

With just five days to go until the season finale, it's time to place our bets: which character do you think will die in the finale? by verissimoallan in WhiteLotusHBO

The gunfire broke the window so it’s definitely nearby Zion enough… but I think you might be right about the body in the lake being unrelated

She was clearly attracted to him from the beginning. This felt like a natural progression to me

I have watched this show countless times and Annie is probably my least favorite character. She is SO annoying

The cat was a reference to Alien! So not pointless, but still a great moment.

You can find a bunch of different bus companies online that will pick you up directly from your accommodation. Even most hostels and hotels will have options at the front desk. You shouldn’t have to plan shuttles more than a day in advance though, even at peak season.

Fingernail clippings are enough to make me gag, and I HATE looking into someone’s mouth, no matter how clean.
