50 Shades??

50 Shades of Gray the sexual version of Twilight both are horrible

AMEN

My neighbours son bought all 3 as a birthday gift for her. She read them twice! and loved them every time. She insisted I needed to read them and would absolutely love them.

I read book 1: kinda boring, bad writing, start of a story line. A few days later I picked up book 2: kinda boring, bad writing, terrible sex scenes, not very good porn. Bored with the series. Took about a month before I could pick up book 3: boring, still bad writing, still terrible sex. Couldn't get into it. Put it down at chapter 3. Weeks later picked it up again and finished the book in one evening. The ending of the trilogy was probably the best of all three books. The END of the trilogy was the best thing about the books -- thank God there isn't a fourth book!

My daughter and d-inlaw saw the books at my house. What are you doing with those books? Are you actually reading them? Shocked.

My daughter downloaded to her kindle, read first 5 lines and gave up on the books. Bad bad writing. D-inlaw mad that I never picked up the books at the library when my holds came in. I had already read them. She's still waiting to read.

Improvement in the sex life? No, I don't think so. D/S is, to me, abusive and I'm not into abuse of any kind.

Want porn? There's no good porn but there is better porn than 50 Shades.

Downloaded all three back to back. Great read!! My poor fiance, couldn't get enough of him!! lol

looking at the comments and noticing that people are complaining about the bad writing...yeah..I did have a problem with that, but once you get over it, not a bad read. But to each it's own....Just loved being introduced to the "good life". The jet planes, and the cars, and not having to worry about money AT ALL!! Awesome!!

The "please", "oh my", and "my inner goddess" is ridiculous! Read them all cause I had to finish what I started, needless to say, it didn't get any better.

that part DID get redundant, lol. Was she bi-polar? All in all, from a 1 to a 10, I gave it a 7.

:blushing:

A guy who has issues with intimacy (due to his past) and is learning to trust with the help of a girl. And on the other end, a naive girl who is learning to push her boundaries in the name of love.

Having been in a similar relationship (as YOU put it, not what everyone raves about), I find this part interesting. I'm just starting the first one. Haven't gotten to the steamy parts yet. Watching Ana and Grey's relationship begin is like reading my own story. Telling him about it and having him see it too... priceless. :blushing:
I don't give a hoot about the writing. I've read amazing authors and lousy authors and it all comes down to what the story says to you, IMO.

Wait until you get the the part with the contract...I died. XD

I've heard about the contract. LOL

I'm reading it now...I'm to the part where he gave her "the contract" LOVE IT!!!!!

I've lost all faith in humanity

I can't wait for the second set where it's all in his point of view!

I know! Just that little taste of it from his POV at the end of the last one makes me want to read the whole series that way!

I loved in book 3 where they gave a chapter on his perspective. I hope all 3 come out from his POV.

I know he was fine as wine however, she was quite drippy. I cannot wait to see who they cast in the movie. They have a lot of interesting choices
