The first three books in The Secret Diary series, starring the brown Bridget Jones, our acerbic heroine, will have you laughing, crying and desperate for one more chapter.
From book 1, The Secret Diary of an Arranged Marriage:
A British-Bengali girl looking for Mr Right. A motley crew of men. A mum on a mission to match make and an age-old tradition with a twist.
Welcome to the world of the arranged marriage.
While I’m young, free and single, time is - by Bengali standards - marching on. I must meet my dream man, or someone I can grow to like, and get married. The trouble is, I don’t really know what - or who – I’m looking for.
Luckily (or not) for me, arranged marriages are still a thing. So alongside my own dating efforts, it’s everyone’s business to find me a match. I’m pretty sure I’ll land a husband, but will he be ‘The One’?
From book 2, The Secret Diary of a Bengali Bridezilla:
And I thought finding a husband was hard...
One couple. Three months. 600 guests (most of whom I’ve never met) and LOTS of opinions.
Welcome to my big fat Bangladeshi wedding.
To do:
Find top makeup artist
Create meaningful favours
Outdo my cousins impending nuptials
Have nervous breakdown?
I’ve found my dream man but will my wedding day be a nightmare?

New husband. New city. New in-laws and new expectations.
Welcome to my life as a Bengali newlywed.
They say you don’t just marry the guy, you marry the whole family. They also say you don’t really know someone until you live with them. But, surely, after the challenge of finding a man, and the nightmare of planning my big fat Bangladeshi wedding, this newlywed phase is the easy bit, right? Right?!
