Maybe I wasn't in the right mood for this type of book but I mostly cringed my way through it. Queenie kept making poor decisions and still seemed surprised that her life was going downhill. I just wanted to yell at her to not ditch work and to not keep having sex with any random guy she met while she was out getting drunk. Tom wasn't the one for her either and she needed to stop trying to grab onto him when he left.
The flashbacks that happened at random times in the story pulled me out too because I would be reading along and then there were suddenly different characters and a different time but they did help to explain a bit why Queenie was the way she was so I guess they were needed.
This story got pretty dark and I don't think it was much like Bridget Jones Diary. I was kind of looking for a happier book.
