Rezension von CarinaI now I am late to the party. I read The Edge of Reason and Mad About the Boy straight after one another. I loved the first and the second, but the third - not so much. I mean it's not bad. It's entertaining, if not to the point of the previous books. It's also good to know what became of Bridget but it felt a bit like. "Oh let's do another book, kill off Darcy for publicity ( a crime in itself) and then have her get a toy boy." I really didn't like the whole toy boy thing, just to have her end up with the teacher in the end. (I did like Mr Wallaker a lot though.) I knew it inbetween somewhere that Bridget might end up with him. I hoped it, certainly and sure enough it happened, but in comparison to the rest of the book, the endless pining after Roxter, it was just too rushed and felt really patched up in the end. I still did like the book, but I think it wasn't necessary.
