50 Shades of Grey - kinda curious on everyone's thoughts
RokofAges75:
No, that makes sense; I can see that. I think whatever we like to read, we do it for that sense of escapism, as well as entertainment. Most of what I read and write, I would not want to happen in real life, but that's what makes it cathartic. With fiction, you can live out your wildest fantasies or worst nightmares without ever leaving the safety of your home LOL.

Mare tweeted this pic - how true is this? Pretty sure I shed a few tears over the beginning of Up, whereas Twilight... nothing.

Ugh, ok, now I'm cracking it open... Will keep you updated... Though one of my friends on tumblr posted up "50 shades of there..." with like 10 instances where the writer was afraid to go into any sort of anatomy:
"My breath caught as I started to feel things there."
"I shivered as he put his hand there."
"A moan escaped my lips as he began to kiss me there..."
and so on... Can't stand writers that use words like "There" or "sausage" it's like really? Come on, now. Hopefully we're all adults and can handle a common word without giggling.
