Apparently selling like hot cakes, mainly to women. Why? What's up with all these women? Very sad I think.
I haven't read a word but it's awesome. If your missus hasn't read it you need to buy her it, buy the trilogy in fact.
My wife wouldn't read it if I paid her. Maybe because she's kept busy with horses and a family. My daughter won't be reading it as she doesn't have time (horses and a son), Maybe all these women reading it are just bored stiff (so to speak) and can't bear the thought of other bored out of their minds women all talking about it without being able to join in. Maybe it's down to marketing. I wonder what % of literate females have bought/read a copy. Personally I think it is a sad reflection on the state of relationships that they have to resort to reading a book which, from what I could gather from tonight's TV program (which I had to switch off because it was so boring), is a load of rubbish.
I haven't even seen a copy and I have no desire whatsoever to read it. I heard enough on the TV before I switched channels. I only read non fiction and am quite happy with my own imagination without having to read of someone else's.
I seen a big fat mess of a bird buying it in Tesco the other day. Pobably reads it and shuts her eyes imagning some big stud pulling her down an entry and banging the massive arse off her.
Aye, just like Ron's wife fantasises about Rupert Campbell-Black's use of the whip while staid Ron lies next to her reading the Financial Times.
In my opinion it's harmless at worst. I haven't read it so I'm in no position to judge the quality of the writing or whether it would even entertain me in the slightest - what I do know though is that plenty of ladies have found it quite enjoyable, not to say arousing, so there must be something about it. I'm also personally quite happy to reap the benefits of this now suburban stimuli, even if there are potential insecurities in the fact that this fictional Grey character would eclipse my own manliness by seemingly all measurements.
