Good point. I always forget they're undead. It's a little disorienting, since most writers/people treat them as a continuation of the person they were before, not a new creature... It's just confusing.

In our church we have the bishop and his wife is the pastor under him so sometime she comes up and preaches or if she gets something then she'll be like "Honey I just got something they need to hear.

Yeah, I mainly work through electronic copies. if I like it I buy a paper copy. It shaves shelf room and keeps novels like Twilight from landing on my shelf space.

I have a nook that I use for a lot of reading to. I like the one with the backlight quite a bit.

Despite the content of the book reviewed, this review is G rated, PG on the outside.


You can always tell how bad a book is by how much profanity I've put in the margins. This book had a lot of profanity. I need to cope with all of these horrible feelings so I present...the five stages of fifty shades of grey in gifs.

Stage 1: amusement



At this stage you've realized two things. Number one, Ana is incredibly shallow and vindictive and number two, that she might be a little gay for her room mate. It's pretty funny, you decide to read more.

Stage 2: wait...what?

This probably has something to do with the contents of the contents Ana must sign in order to have a relationship with (stalker, control freak, manipulative) Christian. Besides the kinky stuff, it outlines when and how much she is allowed to exercise, contains a list of approved meals, and outlines at what hours she must (MUST!) be available for Christian.

Seriously. This is a real thing.



Stage 3: Inebriation



This is the part where you realize at our fearless narrator might not be right in the head. See, she has multiple personality disorder. The other two people occupying her brain are her "inner goddess" and her "subconscious". Her inner goddess is a sex addict while her sub-conscious is actually a voice of reason (in the loosest possible definition of the word). By the way EL James, you keep using the word subconscious, I don't think it means what you think it means.

Stage 4: Disgust

For the sake of the rating, I can not tell you about this part. All I can say is my face looked a lot lie this:




Stage 5: acceptance



You know what? Different strokes for different folks right? I mean, maybe this is just another colorful doubt on the extremely diverse spectrum of human sexuality. No big deal. I mean...sure, there are blatantly wrong morals in this book, but, I mean, no one would actually want to live like Ana does. Right?

Right?

Conclusion:

No. Nope. Just, no. It's not ok. This book justifies pedophilia (only if your abusing young boys), emotional abuse, stalking, and other things that are just. Not. Ok. Ever.

And people read the heck out of it. here are three of these things. And every single one of them was a New York Times Bestseller. All of them.

Stage 6: No hope for the human race.
