Bridget Jones's Diary

Bestseller: about 10 million copies (estimate)

Thirty-something Bridget Jones keeps a diary of her year, logging calories, cigarettes, glasses of wine and a messy love life that pits her charming, unreliable boss against a stiff family friend.

Read this if you want a funny, self-deprecating comfort read that loosely follows Pride and Prejudice.

Skip this if you dislike a heroine obsessed with weight and men, as it reflects 1990s attitudes.
