Book Review #1

Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James                                                                                                          I have to admit that I felt as though I was living under a rock when everyone around me was talking about this book and I had never even heard of it.  Was I that out of touch??  It was no surprise that my book club chose this as our first book to read.  Apparently I wasn't the only one who hadn't read this book, let alone know about it!  While, yes, there were some steamy chapters and some places where I could relate to the characters I couldn't help but want to shake the main character Ana.  I suppose it is one of those things where you see the train wreck in slow motion or you're watching a movie and you know the killer is hiding in the closet.  I could see where this was going to go and how it would end.  It was certainly entertaining and a quick read, however not one of my favorites.  In fact, I'm going to pass on reading the second and third books in the series...not quiet my style of book.
