Reason:    -SPOILER: WARNING NOW-


First off, I'm going to start this review by saying I didn't actually find this book really bad, yes more than half of the books are filled with sex scenes, but the sex scenes are there for a reason. Anyways onto the review!

The reason I didn't give it a perfect rating was because of how quick their relationship started up. Wouldn't really call it a relationship more of sex and such, but it was really quick. And the fact that Christian is so controlling- tracking her cell phone and running scans on her to find more about her like where she works and what not.

A lot of people just think this book is a porno, maybe some of it is, but the reason I liked it so much was the whole background story behind it. Christian had a "crack whore" mother, so he wasn't properly taken care of. He was also pretty much sexually abused by his adoptive mothers friend. So hes had a rough past. From school- and fights and everything... He's so dark, and he figures out a way to keep his life in order and to have control of it- then Ana comes in and completely changes him.

Shes light in his dark world, and they both change completely. In the beginning Ana was very emotional, but who wouldn't be with Christian Grey? You learn very VERY quickly that his cope is well sex. Which is why there are so many scenes with sex, but I think mostly all ladies who have read this book can agree they want their own Christian Grey. Am I right ladies?

Overall I quite enjoy the book, and I've read all three of the books. I love also at the end....;


SPOILER!



That Ana and Christian have children- even though he was terrified he ended up being a loving and caring father- a really good one too as the book displays. Overall the book was really good. I enjoyed it!
