    Yes, I read it and the second book. Heard they were thinking of making it into a movie, at least the rights were sold. Don't know how that will get released based on the subject matter and explicit things!!! Not the best written book, won't go down in history as great literature, but damn, it was a fun read!! :wink:

    Read first and second books, there's a third I think. Got really boring TBH after the first book. Not sure what's the hype cos there are so many other better authors around on the same or similar subject matter.

    I read it, because I naively though that if something has a lot of hype, it must be good. (I made the mistake with "Twilight", and I apparently never learned my lesson.)

    It's basically "Twilight" with a lot of abusive sex that happens with the idea that the female character can "fix" the male. And there aren't any sparkly vampires, but let's be honesty, who misses those? It's like the character read "5 Love Languages", and decided to become this submissive, ridiculous character that has no personality because he's there.

    I don't know, I guess if there's an adult audience that digs the ridiculous codependent relationship in "Twilight", there will be one that digs it in this book. I did not, but unlike Whitney Houston, I'm not every woman.

    I have read all three books (when it was fanfiction - so with different names). Once it got deeper into the psychological side of the characters, especially Christian/Edward's, I enjoyed it.

    I read it. All three. Good series. I am waiting for everyone I know who is reading it to be done so I can talk about the end.
