I bought into the hype. I saw many negative comments and many positive comments. So I finally read this book. I, personally, don't see what all the negative fuss is about. If you don't like all things sexual, why on earth would you pick this book up? Just to complain about it? I have no idea why you would put yourself through that torture. Also, for those extreme feminists out there, it's not degrading to women. Yeah, he's a Dominant (***spoiler alert, sorry), but if the woman says no, he won't do anything she doesn't want to do. m=Many people do this kind of stuff, whether it be a regular thing or just to spice things up a bit, and when people DO do these things, they have SAFEWORDS. Duh. Christian, in the beginning, really pissed me off UNTIL I read about how if Ana said no, he wouldn't do it. Even if he wanted it desperately. How is that degrading? Degrading women is rape. In this scenario, yes, it looks like he's the one behind the controls but in all actuality, it is her sexuality and her shape and her personality and her uniqueness that drives him to the point of wanting her and needing her. She holds all of the cards. She turns him on SO MUCH that he has to have her right then and there. How is that degrading? How does anyone not see that as power, bringing a man like Christian Grey to his knees (figuratively and literally) and needing something so much?
Anyways, onto the books itself and my review of it. The plot really wasn't that great, it was hard to get into except when they were having sex. I've heard, however, that the second and third books get into the details of Christian's fifty shades of fucked up, so I look forward to revealing that... and reading more about their sexual endeavors because OH MY GOODNESS, for any women going through a deployment, these are a must-read. I only started reading it for the sexual pleasure and, by golly, I got it... from reading a book. Don't quite understand how that works, but hey, I will take it!
So that's it, then. Bye for now.
