50 Shades of Grey - kinda curious on everyone's thoughts
Carter-Orange:
OMG there's this TV show on right now all about 50 Shades. They've got real BDSM - or whatever you call it - people on there saying that Christian would be considered a stalker! There's loads of people on there slagging the book off, reading it out and laughing, lol.

I don't know much about BDSM, but I have heard that 50 Shades does not represent that lifestyle accurately AT ALL and that real BDSM people are offended by it. That is funny!
cabybakes:
Have you guys read Bared to You by Sylvia Day? Love it, way more than 50 Shades...

My friend sent me e-book of this series. At first, I was debating if I should read the story or not. I've read so many negative comments about the book. Then I've decided to give it a try, it was given to me free anyway.
I can't imagine the scenes playing like a movie in my head as I read it. It seems like there was a whining teenager in front of me telling me her story. I couldn't get past page 20. I stopped reading.
Maybe when I am really, really, really, really, really bored, I might remember I have fifty shades of grey e-book sitting in my inbox.

Uh oh! I feel like I'm going to get in trouble when I say I sorta liked this book! haha
I definitely didn't think that it was anything special and not worth the hype it's getting but I found it to be such an easy read I got through it really quickly. The whole time I was thinking "I just want to know what could possibly happen next!" which kept me going through the whole series.
I agree with some of the comments that the sex scenes weren't as "scandalous" as they were portrayed to be by the media but I thought it was just a fun summer book like any other paperback romance novel. :)
