ISBN : 9781529952919
What do you do when a girlfriend's 60th birthday party is the same day as your boyfriend's 30th ? Is it morally wrong to have a blow-dry when one of your children has head lice ? Is sleeping with someone after 2 dates and 6 weeks of texting the same as getting married after 2 meetings and 6 months of letter writing in Jane Austen's day ? Pondering these, and other dilemmas, Bridget Jones stumbles through the challenges of single motherhood, online dating, and achieving 'acceptance and calm' in what SOME people rudely call 'middle age'.
