I read this book because I knew lots of people were reading it and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. I would say that it was pretty disappointing. I didn't care for the writing style, some words that she used annoyed me consistently, and I found the main character annoying and boring. And OBVIOUSLY it's the most unrealistic book ever written: plain jane bookworm virgin college graduate meets mega-rich, mega-handsome man who becomes completely enamored with her, spends tons of money buying her gifts and introduces her to his fetish. The sex scenes were somewhat entertaining but aside from that, just not a great book.
