    I read Twilight when my Special Forces Military boyfriend convinced me too, I figured if someone who did interrogations and kicked down door in Iraq could enjoy it then anyone could, lol
    But I have no desire to read 50 Shades, part of me does because of all the hype but I read an except and honestly thought it was a joke/parody of it because it was so bad lol
  • I really liked. But it wouldn't do for everybody to like the same thing.

    I haven't read it, nor Twilight :noway: Sacrifice me now, but truly and honestly I believe vampires should burn in sunlight, not sparkle and glitter. Just my opinion.

    You're so right!
  • I'ma go with mmmmmmm nope! The fact that they are poorly written repels me much more than the idea that they're porn.
    Oh, and the idea that they seem like they're setting feminism back like 50 years.
    ...But I haven't read them, so I can't be too sure on either point.

    Nope.. my husband read me a couple of sentences and I realized that I didn't need to eat (read) the whole thing to realize how badly written it is... seems aimed at young teen females.

    Nope.. I read thng like Dean Koontz.. He is awesome.. If i read anything like 50 shades, it isnt going to be because everyone else reads it.. i think that is why i havnt read it... because so many have, and im not into doing things other people do.. im not into that.. I will find and read my own eroctia.. lol

    Never been big on hype. If everybodyelse is doing it then I tend to want to do the complete opposite.

    I have no desire to read bad bondage porn. If it floats your boat go for it.

    The Guy is a controlling dink... when I read it, I couldn't get over the fact that he wears CABLE KNIT SWEATERS. That was the end of my Lady Boner.

    No they should sparkle and glitter... as your roasting marshmallows over their crispy charred bodies.

    You're not the only one. I haven't read it, and have no intention of reading it. I'd rather work on my OWN book. :wink:

    Proud to say I haven't read it... I'll stick with the good old fashion pulp books!
