Book Review: Fifty Shades of Grey by E L James

I know, I know. This book has gone viral and really, who wouldn't want to read what social media is referring to as "mommy porn"? And yes, I have jumped in and took the plunge down the erotica slide. I'm currently reading the third book of the trilogy and my my, for the first time in my life, I'm still undecided as to whether I love this book or not.

As you all know, this book was written based on a Twilight fan fiction by a British writer author (I almost said writer but hey, not to be rude or anything, I found the writing a bit upsetting so I'd rather say author than writer) and honestly, it's VERY addicting. Maybe because it gives you an inner glimpse in the world far beyond reality, a little introduction to what they call BDSM (Google it if you don't know the meaning).

The main characters (Christian and Anastasia) have a very complex and compelling relationship you'd think "how in the world did they end up together?" But that's the thing with this book; you have so many questions and sometimes, you can't get the answer. To begin with, Anastasia's a virgin and her first time involves the skillful and dominating Christian --- of course she'll definitely fall in love! Innocent people often fall prey to traps set by manipulative, egotistical alpha males (or females).

Alas, you'd still want to know how their (love) story goes so you'll definitely have to read Fifty Shades Darker (and Fifty Shades Freed). I'd bet this would be a blockbuster once it hits the movie screens. Or would it? Be the judge.
