I can see why so many people either love or hate this book. I started out hating it, I almost didn't finish it but I am so glad I did.

Really loved these books, reading these made me want to makes some changes in my life, so I guess you could say they were a bit inspiring to me... This introduced me to the Smut I now seem to not be able to stay away from.
