So you might recall I read the first book, and gave it higher stars, which was 5 of 6, than some might have thought it deserved. Well that is because it was entertaining, and well it did keep you wondering where it would go next. Now this will give you spoilers in this blog if you don't want to know where the first book goes, so stop reading now if you don't want that. Anyways, at the end of the first book Christian and Anastasia had parted ways, so a huge enough cliffhanger was left to keep us reading till the next book. Now upon arriving to the next book you see that the plot was completely useless. There was no reason to continue writing these characters. The BDSM disappears, the story, everything.
Summary: Anastasia and Christian are back together after a very short break. Now they have discovered they want the real thing, or least Anastasia does. Christian seems still on the fence about whether he can commit since he can't say he loves her just yet. When an ex-submissive shows back up who has gone crazy, and Elena, the woman who was Christian's first submissive, begin to over crowd Anastasia's existence in Christian's life she is unsure she can commit to a man with such a past. Not only that, but Christian still has many issues he is dealing with from childhood that prevent him from being touched. Anastasia thought she was ready to commit, but is she?

Bookshelf: E.L James' Fifty Shades of Grey
Whether people have read it or not it seems that most people have an opinion about this book. One of my hugest pet peeves is hating something that you've never read, watched, or listened to though. Out of curiosity I finally got around to reading Fifty Shades of Grey. The talk of the movie made it difficult to keep putting off. In 2011 a book that began as Twilight fanfiction hit the scene. It's pretty obvious it has Twilight origins, and I'm sure E.L. James wasn't shocked by the negative reaction. For some reason women can't enjoy things without it being bashed whether it's Twilight or this. I forget that Playboy is scholarly.
Summary: Anastasia Steele is a 21 year old with a promising future. She has hopes of working in the publishing industry. Before graduating college she meets Christian Grey. Grey is a wealthy business tycoon who feels intrigued by Ana from the moment he meets her. She also has become intrigued by him, but Grey has a lifestyle that only those he knows practice the same he lets in a relationship with him. While Grey is interested in Ana she would have to not be put off by his private lifestyle.
