Fifty Shades of Grey

Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The first time I heard of this book was on the Today show. Since I was leaving on our anniversary vacation the next week, I bought the first one on my Nook. I thought it might be a good vacation book - and it is! To me, it's about two 20-somethings that fall in love, have the typical romantic novel problems (she doesn't trust him, he doesn't trust her)with all the fantastic sex you have when you are first in love. Yes, he's BDSM, she's not. Will she succumb to his needs? or will he succumb to hers? The writing is not terribly sophisticated, but it is certainly an entertaining, erotic romance with a traditional ending if you read all three books - which should be together as one. It's good I could download the other two while on vacation - I loved reading it.

(as far as erotic goes - they have sex - but the descriptions are not explicit.  it's more about her feelings. some people will like and some will not.)

P.S. I'm planning to read it again.
