I'm finding it hard to put into words how awkward I found this book.
The writing style is atrocious; can someone get the author a thesaurus? or how about the editor?
The parallels to Twilight are so pronounced that it's laughable.
Where's the plot? Nothing happens in the entire book other than a lovestruck college girl has internal struggles about a man. Her "inner goddess" and conscious are hilarious. She talks to them like she's crazy. It's funny, but weird. (Also, I would think an inner goddess ...more

I cannot, for the life of me, figure out why and how this book got so popular. The writing is pretty much bland, the characters are flat, irritating, 50 shades of not-interesting, the story itself is painfully naive, sex scenes are ridiculous - as if the author truly did had an idea to make them out to be really, really hardcore and then she panicked and instead went for the...no idea what!
So why did I read the freakin`book? I guess, like everyone else, I wanted to know what the fuss was about. ...more

Of COURSE he's hot, of COURSE she's gorgeous (but doesn't know it!!!) and of COURSE none of this stuff would ever ever ever ever ever happen in real life.
Not that everything in books does, otherwise I'd be in Hogwarts right now... (totally different track of mind though...)
Seriously, this book was written excruciatingly simply that it's hardly a read. Btw Mrs. James, people don't talk AT ALL the way Christian and Ana do...so polite and always grammatically correct...yeah okay. I have an English ...more

I liked the book. I am not sure it should be a best seller. I will read the trilogy from the library but not buy the books. I cannot see me reading them again.
arrr I guess it's my OCD tendencies but I just can't stand to NOT read this....must know what it's all about....here goes...... Not as bad as some are making it out to be in my opinion. It's really a love story, in a sad and sadistic way. Real love stories aren't all butterflies and rainbows and this story is true to form in that aspect. I've read erotica and though this has graphic details of sex, it's really not the main focus. Glad I read it on my kindle because I had to check out several def
