OMG!!! I am addicted. And to the morning anchorwomen who said it was poorly written and could not get past the first 5 chapter... I no longer will watch you. Blasphemy! Now, is it the next Hardy or Bronte, umm no, but come on people, it was my friend J called "Mommy Porn" (or my husband called MILF porn). It provocative, riveting, and yes it did tend to get my girly parts enticed! I just could not put it down, not even to go to the gym... yes Christian and Ana went to the gym with me and I loved every filthy minute of my 30 minute stairclimb!I think what draws me in is that you have heard about some of the things in this book, yet most of us have never explored them. It's like the modern day Harlequin romances my mom used to read! It's books like these that entice us, they allow us to be transported to some other time or place, it let's us live out some dream.
And let's face it, we all have met/dated that guy. The one who you want so badly, but know you shouldn't. The one who wants everything but commitment? Come on ladies.... read it!
So for the naysayers out there. Remember, not every book has to be a prize-winning novel, or essay on the status of humanity. I mean, I'm not a Harry Potter/Twilight/Hunger Games fan, but you do not see me knocking those that are. To me its simple, books are a form of entertainment, escapism at its finest. You don't see anyone calling Nicholas Sparks or J. K. Rowling bad do you? ~The Illegal Blonde
