Anyone NOT reading 50 shades... ? lol

No I haven't and am not interested, I wasn't interested in Twilight either - saw a clip of Twilight once where the vampire showed the girl why he can't go out in daylight - because the sun makes his skin sparkle "like diamonds"... I nearly wet myself laughing! Sparkly vampires falling in love with human teenage girls pmsl !
 
if it was that awful it wouldnt be making $1m a week atm

But people have bought it before knowing what it's like, based on what they have heard.

The Internet has been a massive influence for this book

Personally I bought all 3 books based on the hype, only read just over half of one book, then gave them away. So I contributed to these sales figures, but I still don't rate the bookat all.
 
I haven't! I feel kind of left out everyone else is! Even my best friend who I've never even heard her mention the word 'sex' or anything so much as similar has it and is reading it :dohh: hearing her read me about 3 sentences from a random page make me laugh..It's so weird hearing things about orgasms from her :rofl: x
 
I shall not be reading it either..... Never joined the Twilight band wagon either.......
 
I only found out the other week that it started off as a twilight fan fiction, she just changed a few details like their names etc and made it into her own book lol! There are supposed to be loads of similarities to Edward and Bella. I haven't read it, i might try reading the first one when all the hype dies down, atm i am reading the vampire diaries, not very well written really but i'm still enjoying them x
 
plenty of bad things make alot of money lmao, it just a hype, it doesn't mean its good lol, its really really really crap lol, and i'm being kind, terrible writing style, unbelievable characters they are cringe worthy to the point of laughter "i didn't even realize i was biting my lip" AGAIN FOR THE 300th TIME, quite frankly its silly. I appreciate everyone enjoys different books though, but i rarely read outside of my comfort zone and i think i should be credited for reading 15 chapters. :p
 
Nooo - sounds like porn in writing lol.
Doesn't interest me! xx
 
I'm not. I started reading it but it came 1st in my top ten of badly written books. Didn't even bother finishing the first book

Boring, repetitive and awful writing style

This is exactly me!! The writing was terrible and the inner goddess did my fecking head in!!!
 
I suppose this book is a bit like marmite lol, you love it or you hate it.
 
I'm not, I've been tempted to but there are way too many books currently sitting waiting for me to get to them that I would rather read first so I'm not bothering.
 
I'm not either! I've thought about it... But I don't think it's my thing really. I did read the twilight series and enjoyed them, not my favourite books ever but they were alright. I'm just not drawn to 50 shades at all:shrug:
 
I'm not. What I AM finding hilarious is how hypocritical some of the women i know who are reading it are. "I don't like it I my husband watches porn but it's fine for me to read a book that is more or less porn"
:lol:
 
I'm not reading it, I'm currently working through a reread of my Wheel of Time series which is much more my style, sword fights and fantasy worlds :D x x x
 
I'm not!!

I've taken offense at the labelling of it as 'mummy porn'. And as I am not a mummy...

Plus I figure my selection of erotic fiction is probably way better than anything you can buy at Asda!! :rofl:

:lol:

Bloody good point hun :winkwink:
 
not reading it, not guna buy it , dnt even have time to read a mag:lol:
 
I'm giving it a miss too - I just don't fancy it at all and even more so now it's been so hyped up! It's all I see on FB and hear about in work - and the final straw for me was my old Aunty telling me how good it was! No thanks :haha:
