50 Shades of Grey

I don’t really understand the fascination with 50 shades of Grey. I read the novels because I heard so much about it being such a good book that I have to read it.

Well into the first chapter I was disappointed because the book was poorly written; besides the story line was unbelievable and repetitive. I kept on reading because I was hoping I will see what people were so fascinated about it, and that fact still eludes me.

I don’t like romance novels, they are too mushy, and this book reminds me of a romance novel with some S&M throw in.

What I really did not like was the fact that it portrayed Grey as a sick individual that Anastacia was able to cure due to her love toward him.

The book romanticizes the notion that trough love and patience a woman can change a man. The way I see it, it opens the door for more women to continue in an abusive relationship because at the end they might be able to change their man. And we all know that no men or women changes unless they want to change.

The narrative in the book is repetitive and in my opinion it was not erotic, it was just lame.

So, as I said before, I don’t understand the fascination with the book and now the film which I will not see because I prefer spend my money in something worthwhile.
