Its actually just a curiosity at first. I am seeing it all over the internet. My reaction is "What's with this 50 Shades? and then it became much more like "Whats with Grey?"... I admit Im kinda negative about this book before. I am a type of person that reads a lot of review from the net before buying something. And I have read some negative reviews then. But the more I read negative reviews all the more the curiosity grows on me. And then I can't get enough of it anymore.
I told my friend about the book becoming a super duper controversial and she was quite interested on it. Then she decided to buy the book. She asked me if I want it too, I was so sceptical at first, but then I said, what to lose anyway? Its just a book. It feels weird though that both of us buy our own copies when we live on the same house. We used to share our Danielle Steele, Judith Macnaughts and others. So funny we think, but we can't risk the possibility of liking it and end up asking ourselves who owns it now? So we decide, what the heck, lets have each of our own.
And now, we're happy we have decided to have our own. It's worth a keep.
Why should I say that? There is a lot to say.
The romance. It tells a love story and when it comes to this, sex is inevitable. The book shows the readers how two people share the passion they have for each other. The amorousness is uncontrollable. Overflowing. Unconditional. And as Anastasia says, insatiable. They have an effect with each other that they cannot detemine where and when it begins and if it will end. But every romance novel has the same story. How the author put it in writing is what makes the difference. The details, the passion, the feelings. It was put altogether in a perfect timing. Mixing all of it without leaving the other. It was all there. The imagination will work simoultaneously while you're reading it. The author gave it all to the reader.
The characters. It's not at all talk, dark and handsome prince and smart, kind and beautiful princess. Yeah, the characters are not from fairy tales anymore. It's talk, dark eyes and bad ass. Main characters are not the poor one and the good one. They are the powerful, authoritative, unnerving and mean which by the way are the bad characters in fairy tales. Despicable characters. Christian Grey with deep dark secrets. Mean. Very cruel. Dominant. But with a deep dark past that makes him what he is. Attitude that he can't control because of his past. And then there is Anastasia. A very gullible person. A not-so-hot-not-so-pretty chick. A not so kind easy-to-bully one. But a bad ass herself. Not a graceful and fragile lady but a strong lass. A character that makes the mean man gone madly inlove.
The author. It was a shock when I learned that E L James is a woman. I thought it was more like Goerge RR Martin specialty. I mean, how can she be braved with all this stuff. I mean those overflowing stuff. Well this is not a first erotic novels ever written but hey, hers' very unpredictable. Her choice of music is excellent. Vocabulary is enormous. The imagination is boundless. The story, the sequence, its volatile. Need not say more.
The Story. Everyday we hear a story about a child sexually abused. A story of a child hurt and tortured by someone. A story of a child that witnessed the dead of her mother or anyone elses'. But a story of a child with all those things altogether, is a hearbreak. The reader was captured by this sad story. And anxious how he will got out of it. We hear those wild sex, pornography and all that. But not a woman that will willingly do it for the love of her man and not for the money. A story that one might easily getaway with in real life. But not one will willingly stay to make a difference and try to make it right.
There's a lot more to say but I guess I'll leave it all to the readers.
Can't wait to finish the second and third book.
Laters, baby.
