Book Description

entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant,
and intimidating. The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants
this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get
close to him. Unable to resist Ana’s quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit,
Grey admits he wants her, too but on his own terms.
Shocked yet thrilled by Grey’s singular erotic tastes, Ana hesitates. For all
the trappings of success his multinational businesses, his vast wealth, his
loving family Grey is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to
control. When the couple embarks on a daring, passionately physical affair, Ana
discovers Christian Grey’s secrets and explores her own dark desires.

My points of view:
You can either LOVE or HATE this book!
I was looking for a good read and by all of the reviews this seemed to be an
excellent read. The first three chapters made me to choose to read this book
but what kept me putting it off because most of the reviews said that this book
are meant mainly for female readers only. Moreover, Fifty Shades of Grey was an
introduction to BDSM literature (a very detailed one). I cannot begin to
explain how this book sucked me in. The story line went downhill after the
first few chapters. I skipped through most of the middle chapters and went to
the last just so I knew how it was ending.
This is my first book under the category of erotic romance where pleasantly surprised
by the witty relationship between Ana and Christian. The characters are almost
similar to Twilight saga where Ananstasia vs Bella Swan and Christian Grey vs
Edward Cullen. Their interactions, especially their conversations, are teasing,
funny and sexy. But what I don't like was Ana's subconscious and her inner
thoughts, especially before and after each making love moments. It's simply
annoying. Some might be hysterical but it just makes the book drag along.
So far I think you can guess that this book is very kinky, hot, crazy but
sexy. Definitely not for the faint heart or naive type. It contains loads of
graphic sex language especially the particular bathroom scene that still makes
me keep rethinking about it. DAMN!!
The reason I am only giving this book 3 stars instead of 5 is because I grew
tired of the constant lip biting (I think the author does this all the time)
and references to Grey's "adonis-perfect-god" attractiveness. One
word, BORING!! If at the beginning of the book where we pumped with these
impressions that Grey's is freaking hot well that is OK but under a 21
years-old descriptions of the perfect man perfect-physical just enough to makes
people grew sick of it.
Overall good read, and I'm currently half-way finished with the sequel. Not to
say love it but overall enjoying it (skipping the unnecessarily scenes of sex,
sex, sex and sex!!!)
You can't help and can't put down the book once you start reading
it!
