Someone gave this to me for my birthday last week. I had heard about it all over the radio etc but I didn't realise what the book was actually about. I hated it! It was actually a bit scary. I think anyone that enjoyed it is one sick puppy. I discussed it with a friend of mine a few days ago and she actually said that her fantasy is for someone to fu/king beat her up and then have sex with her....WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE

He slaps her on the arse a few times like, not as if that's beat up! Anyway it's a book (fantasy) not real,didn't happen. The reality is that most women wouldn't stay with a guy that is that ****ed up.

Some people like S & M some don't ....no big deal different strokes for different folks. I'd say most who read the book have little or no interest in S & M they just enjoy the fantasy of it.

You'd find better written porno stories on the web.

I read the book and I know what he did. I didn't say he bet her up I merely stated that it stirred something in my friend and she now wants to be beaten before sex. Also at the end of the book if you call that a few slaps on the arse I worry :rolleyes:

I went fifty shades under the sun reading this in work last week.. can't quite take in the naivety of the 'heroine'. Mr Grey has since introduced her to sex and now he wants to divulge his further fantasies in his enigmatic 'room of pain'... eh, I think not. I still can't believe a woman wrote this, she must have a fair dose of testosterone in her...

Not that I remember I recall him wanting to spank the ass of her and it never gets any further then that...tbh I just don't get the hype and the drama about the book it's not that racy at all !

And I can bet she wouldn't want it if she was to get to that point...big difference when faced with the reality of it.

Why worry it's a book you should have put it down before you got that far then...get over it!

Why is that worrying? It's what some people are into, if it's two consenting adults then what's the problem? In the book, even though Ana didn't actually like it when she was being caned, she did consent to it and it was her choice not to use the safe word. Just because it's something that you don't understand, it doesn't mean it's "sick"!

The dialogue she has about her 'subconcious' and her 'inner godess' is one of the absolutely strangest parts, I think these are voices in her head, but I have no idea, I mean how is her subconcious so concious? I have no idea what her inner goddess is meant to represent but here are some examples :

My inner goddess has her sequins on and is warming up to dance the rumba.
I swallow, and my inner goddess squints from her sun lounger where she’s trying to catch rays with a silver reflector fanned out at her neck
My inner goddess looks like someone snatched her ice cream
My inner goddess looks up startled from her Jackie Collins.

My subconscious has her arms crossed and is wearing Burberry check
My subconscious purses her lips and mouths the word ‘ho.’ I ignore her. Sitting beside me, he gently pulls my sweatpants down again. ‘Up and down like whores’ drawers, my subconscious remarks bitterly. In my head, I tell her where to go.
My subconscious is frantically fanning herself, and my inner goddess is swaying and writhing to some primal carnal rhythm

Maybe she suffers from schizophrenia

I think too many people are reading too much into the 50 shades trilogy. I have read all 3 books and thought they were really far fetched and alot of the books took place over a 3 month period.

I enjoyed them and took what I wanted from them and left the rest.

26 year old unattached self made billionaire who employs 40,000 people and makes $100.000 an hour meet a 22 year old college virgin who never has had an orgasm.!!!

Righto on, Maggiesims.. it doesn't add up to much when you break it down like that. It's all fluffed up with the s&m stage shows thrown in to give the watery, romantic storyline an additional edge.

I'm only reading it to keep up in conversations...

Looks like Emma Watson might be the leading actor for the part of the young female lover: http://www.digitalspy.ie/movies/news/a394805/emma-watson-considered-for-ana-steele-in-fifty-shades-of-grey-movie.html

Emma Watson is reportedly a "frontrunner" to play Fifty Shades of Grey's main character Anastasia Steele in the film adaptation.

According to the International Business Times, the Harry Potter actress is wanted to play EL James's female protagonist Ana in the erotic movie.

The Twilight-inspired novel follows a young college student as she embarks on a BDSM relationship with an older businessman...

...Hollywood actresses Emma Roberts, Ashley Benson and Lucy Hale have all expressed an interest in the part of Ana.

Lol. Or the bits in the third book where Ana gets turned on watching Christian lick some sweets of his INFANT son's fingers. Or when they have sex while she's pregnant, and Ana says that her IN UTERO baby girl must enjoy sex already.

I had to go back to the end of the third book and check this out I was surprised i wasn't disgusted that she was turned on by that:eek: When I read it Ana wasn't turned on by this but it was to show how much he adored his son and how he had changed and was now able to show emotion and love for his son.

Also the part about the daughter enjoying sex already, Christian replied she won't be having sex until she is 30, again showing his caring side towards his kids.

Just bought my copy of Fifty Shades of Grey and Fifty Shades Darker on O' Connell's street this morning, so hope to read them soon and see what all the fuss is about.

Sounds more controlling than caring.

I realise that it's a little late in the day, but it just occurred to me that there's a passable pun suggesting something along the lines of 50 Shades readers being 'wet behind the ears' as opposed to anywhere else, or something of that ilk. I've not slept in a while, so if someone could formulate that general notion into an epigrammatic quip and direct the thanks my way, it would be much appreciated.
