I couldn't get past the first couple of pages, the writing is so awful. My sister in law is obsessed with all of it though and has it in her head I like it because I never say what I really think because I think it's cool she got into reading because of that terrible book regardless. Anyway she loaned me the books and dvds and I took them home and pretend I've read/watched them. I did try to watch the first one, simply awful. Not my idea of erotic at all. Mr. Grey is so fucking boring.
