I can say I read it, and I now have an opinion on it. Frankly, not impressed.

This book belongs more in comedy than it does in romance.

Just bought a cook book called "Fifty Shades of Chicken". Now to enjoy it to the full extent, I must try to read the original novel. I hope it will be enjoyably bad!

Dreadful. I enjoy decent prose, and this was not even close to decent prose (in my opinion).

It's hard to review this book honestly without including some spoilers, but I'll try not to give too much away. I was "warned" about how bad it was, but nothing could have prepared me for what was inside. Initially I had no desire to…

This book is popular because the main male character (Christian Grey) is most women’s dream man: gorgeous, arrogant/confident, powerful/rich, flirty, tall, clean, mature, orderly, protective, mysterious, and a little older than the main…

I’m a little late to the party. While Fifty Shades fever was sweeping across the country I was resistant to reading the series, because I didn’t think I would enjoy this type of fiction. So, I am surprised by how easily I was pulled into…

I made it about 1/5 through the book. Boring characters and poorly written.

I was very curious about this book... I wanted to understand why he treated women that way.. I couldnt understand why if he had everything in life he still hated himself and felt like he didnt deserve to be loved... I enjoyed all the books…

Love this book.

I just recently read this book. It's disturbing, however, people like this do exist. I hope I never meet one.

I took this book out just to see what all the hub bub was about and didnt get an answer. I made it 3/4 of the way through and put er down. Long boring dialogue and monotone characters. Im really not clear how this is the best selling…

Fifty shades of grey are a series consisting of 3 erotic romantic movies based off of the fifty shade novels. I did not enjoy this book at all. I think the main character of this novel, Anna, was so badly done. She didn’t send any good…

I dont know if I am more embarrassed to have read this or that I liked it

Got the audio book for a road trip...I couldn't get past the second chapter...and that was a struggle in itself. Predictable, cheaply written, painfully tedious dialogue. Terrible. I never saw the movie nor read the book and I never…

This will be a short review because frankly I didn't finish this book. I couldn't. The Ghosts of English Professors Past would not let me. The grammar, the cobbled together sentence fragments, the dialogue- ugh! I'm getting a rash just…

Yeah. I read this book. The trilogy was definitely good for a summer read, but I have some problems with it, as a whole. First off, this series is very clearly a fanfic. There is nothing wrong with writing and reading fanfiction (as a…

Ugh. That is really the best I can do.

Try as I might, I couldn't get past the first few pages of this book. However, I DID read the book, FIFTY SHADES OF BRAINS, by B.F. Dealeo, a liteary spoof of the Fifty Shades book. I enjoyed it so much.

I have a number of things to say about this book. First of all, it's horribly written. Rumor has it, it originated from fanfiction so I guess that's to be expected. All the "sex" scenes are written like a nun wrote them. There's no…

This book gave me the opportunity to recognise that I apparently have literary standards. It was so badly written I couldn't read past about chapter three. I didn't bother flicking to the raunchy parts because I realised I would have…

I could not finish this book. The writing is poor and the subject matter is disturbing to say the very least. The best description would be like the old Harlequin Romances but add domestic violence. The fact that it's written by a…

A nice light read, something for a rainy day. I finished the trilogy quite quickly and find that I have no regrets in doing so. It is written well, but is an adult book so be warned. These characters are fictional, and so they embody a…

What if you were so attracted to someone that you can't even stay away from him? Check out my review of "Fifty Shades of Grey" on my blog at: http://axarr.blogspot.com/2016/08/review-wednesday-fifty-shades-of-grey.html

Very little plot going on here. If you took out the lame and redundant bow-chicka-wow-wow this book could be written on a post it note. Got so tired of Anastasia "biting her lip" and listening to her "inner goddess"…
