    If you like intrigue with a bit of smut, try the Fever series by Karen Moning.

    There are two more books by the same author, the next title being "Fifty Shades Darker"?? Not sure what the third book is titled.

    I haven't read it yet, I've heard it's good, but still, no one ever says anything about what it's about!! But I feel lost as well, I just started reading the Dexter series books, and I finished my 2nd one, waiting for the 3rd to come in the mail. Bored enough to get ahead on school work =/

    Read Bare to You by Sylvia Day. I know what you mean, I get depressed when books are over. Oh, also read JR Ward, Black Dagger Brotherhood. The first is Dark Lover, you'll love it. Happy reading!

    Cherise Sinclair has a couple of series that are excellent...and much much better than shades. You can find them on Amazon..books or download.

    Bared to you was great. I liked it even better than 50 shades (which I also loved!) I can't wait till the next one comes out (after Bared to you...it's also going to be a trilogy and the second book comes out in October I believe).

    I have seen excerpts of this nonsense floating around on the internet and it terrifies me, for a few reasons. First, it started off as Twilight fanfiction. I have nothing against fanfiction (how could I? I write it myself), but I have everything against Twilight (and yes, I did indeed read Twilight back in the day, when I was a 16-year-old-girl who thought it romantic--and then again in a college class, where I was finally disillusioned by the terrifyingly poor prose, ugly plot and character development, and undertones of sexism and racism). Second, those I know who have read it have been horrified by how it portrays a D/s relationship, because it is unequivocally incorrect. Third, erotica is awesome. Poorly written erotica is not.

    Read something...else. For the sake of your brain. :flowerforyou:

    I... do NOT understand the 50 Shades obsession, but I was the same with Twilight.

    But, if you're after some good romancey/dark sort of reads, may I recommend:

    The Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K Hamilton (though after about book 10 or so it just gets unreadable with the erotica... I say erotica, I mean porn)

    The Women of the Otherworld series by Kelley Armstrong

    And, even though they're young adult novels, the Wolves of Mercy Falls series by Maggie Stiefvater.

    *bangs head*

    How many of these threads are there going to be?

    The book SUCKED. The sex SUCKED. The BDSM was far from real life. The writing was poor. Anna was a wishy washy girl who, if I didn't know she was supposed to be in her twenties acted like she was thirteen. I found it hard to believe that she had never been kissed, never touched herself and didn't know what all those "strange and tingly feelings DOWN THERE were. I found it to be incredibly sophomoric. Truth be told I skimmed through the book looking for the good parts -- which didn't exist -- and didn't even bother with the rest of the series.
