Oh, these books. I tried so hard to resist jumping on the bandwagon, but I failed. I ended up reading all three books in a week, losing respect for myself along the way.

Dismal. What can be said about this that hasn't already been said? Dull heroine, creepy hero and so many plot/character flaws. Thank goodness for the sex eh? No.

Would have loved to have edited this book into shape more!!

I felt 50 shades of stupid after I read this book, 50 points taken off my IQ. The book isn't very well written, in addition, the author is so incredibly repetitious with words and phrases, by the end I wanted to pull my hair out...or perhaps buy the author a thesaurus.

It's an easy read. The characters are likeable I suppose. The storyline is infectious in an I hope "love conquers all" type of way. My official review: "eh".
