    II just don't understand someone who is having all of this so called crazy sex but calls her vag- "down there".

    I don't think the word "vagina" was ever used in all three books. As you said, it's "down there" or "my sex", which also drove me crazy.

    There's a lot less kinkery in the others, so far (I'm midway thru 3), and yes, he does become more likeable. AND, the plot actually moves away from sex and into a bit more of a suspence.

    This^^ There is a plot, which becomes more evident in book 2, but don't have too high of expectations. Christian does become more likeable and Ana comes out of her shell more. The 3rd book is meant to hold a bit of mystery, although it's pretty transparent. I wouldn't continue reading if you're looking for anything really cerebral, though.

    This whole book & hype infuriates me. It was Twilight fanfic! You can still download the original story before she changed the names from Edward & Bella!

    I cannot believe that people are reading this crap and thinking it's the best work of fiction ever. Ugh.

    The writing is poor and the story is basically Twilight if you take out vampires and werewovles and add in kinkiness.

    That's because this book series actually started out as a Twilight fanfiction story called "Master of the Universe".

    *edit* Doh...the poster before me beat me to it.

    Seriously- who sleeps with a deflated helicopter balloon under their pillow?? And Ana's "inner goddess"- annoying!

    "WOW:, she murmered, from beneath her lashes.
