Fifty Shades Of Grey by E.L. James

Lets do this....
Women's porn, we all know that is exactly what this series is. Its nothing more than literary porn. And I liked it! Women love the unbelieve crazy sex antics that go on in the story and men, well if you have a crap sex life... you need to read these books, you will definitely learn a thing or two!
Now the lead character Anastasia Steele is the biggest pain and there are times you want to throw the book across the room and into the wall because she is just so frustrating, I get self confidence issues I really do... I'm writing a Book Blog and freaking out waiting for that first snippet of criticism. But seriously this girl is ridiculous. As for Christian Grey, I'm not going to lie he is a massive control freak and at times pisses you off but wow... E.L. James knows how to write about strong sexy men.
The whole way through this book I was blushing across the room at my husband thinking I would literally die of shame if he knew what was going on in these books yet my friend and I were texting each other non stop through out each book emotions ranging from shock to amazement. I am almost certainly convinced that these books gave my friend the final push to leave her miserable unhappy marriage. I read a lot of reviews about this book and read a lot of people snipping at the lack of storyline... I found Grey to have a strong storyline that I enjoyed, yes its mostly full on graphic sex and this thing called BDSM but it does have a story and its not too bad once you can get past Anastasias OMG he hasn't called OMG is he calling again attitude. I had never read any books even remotely like this and I would be very careful not to get caught up in these books but every once in a while you just cant go past a book like this. My younger cousin once posted her utter humiliation of coming home from collage to find her Dad, my Uncle who is extremely close to my Dad reading none other than her copy of Fifty Shades of Grey... Oh I felt her shame but was comforted by the fact that my Dad lives in another country so this scenario was never likely to happen to me... well... My Dad & wonderful Step Mum have just been here on holiday.... and it happened, the most mortifying and embarrassing moment happened when they came home from my sisters house, Step Mum brandishing this book, discussing with my Dad about it being awful and that my sister really shouldn't be reading this.... keep in mind my sister is seven years older than me... I promptly hid my books from the shelf in my room under my bed came out to the kitchen and said Oh god I have heard about those awful books, not sure why anyone would want to read them! Oh the shame of seeing a book like this in the same room as my dear old Dad.
So moving on from that horror this is a brilliant steamy book that is bound to get your pulses racing and if you aren't doing so well in that area you soon will be ;) Men and Women if you haven't read it just go out and get a copy and read it. You can thank me later xx
