Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. JamesMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I got hooked. Fifty Shades is definitely addictive after the initial few chapters. All the adjectives and descriptors used by the media to describe this romance/erotica novel are apt. "Mommy porn" and "Twilight for adults" pretty much describe it entirely.
I enjoyed Fifty Shades as much as I can enjoy a giant bowl of ice cream. I know it's not the healthiest and enriching thing I can consume, but darn it, it just so much fun.
I also read others trying to justify the popularity of this book by comparing Anastasia Steele with Victorian lit heroines such as Elisabeth Bennett and Jane Eyre Why bother with that? By doing so, I would just be trying to balance the fact that I've read Pride and Prejudice and Jane Eyre with the fact that I just read a fluffiest book since Twilight.
