Fifty Shades of Grey by E. L. James


I read this in a couple of days; it was an express loan at the library because it's very popular.  These are my thoughts on the book.  The storyline wasn't very interesting.  They don't get into the sex until about 100 pages in.  Christian is demanding and controlling but it's obviously hot for his character.  Ana is way too god damn innocent...the number of times she says "jeeze" and "there" annoyed me endlessly.  And there is a lot of description for the foreplay areas, but not much when it comes to the actual act.  What I liked best about the book is that Ana has an inner goddess and inner...something else, but these are given life as if they are two other women who glare at Ana or jump up and down, etc. depending on what Ana is doing / thinking.  And of course, the end of the book is writen in such a way to make to want to read the second, all loose ends and hanging in the air.
