review 1: I found this book by accident in the free section. I was looking for something quick to read, and quite honestly who doesn't love a free book?I first saw this and instantly rolled my eyes. I thought great another bad parody of an even worse book. It truly is anything but bad. I read this in one sitting, which is far different than the real fifty shade of grey books. I loved the characters that Andrew Shaffer created. They were perfect. I also loved that every sentence on every page is laced with the most amazing sarcasm. It brought me back to every thing I thought about the real books. I am just sad it wasn't longer. The book had amazing lines like:"Damn my hair – it’s fifty shades of fucked up. The situation I’m in is fifty shades of fucked up. " Which literally mad... moree me laugh so hard my abs hurt. My favorite line in this book would be this one: "I walk through the glass doors and into the lobby, which is also floor-to-ceiling glass and steel. This fascinates me, because buildings back in Portland are made of grass and mud."I think everyone should start reading this book right now. Don't be a stick in the mud. I promise you won't regret it.
review 2: First, my background so you can understand how I feel about the whole 'sparkly vampire' genre. I tried to read the first Twilight book when it came out. It was one of the worst books I've ever tried to read. I skimmed through most of it, more to say that I had given it a fair chance than because I wanted to see how it ended. I'm still not sure how a 90-year man, faking his place in high school, crushing on a teenage girl, is anything but disgusting...but it seems to work for a lot of people. When the talk about Fifty Shades began, I thought, "I'll have to read that" just to be able to join in the work conversations. However...I learned it was Twilight fanfic and I couldn't do it. Read something worse than Twilight?? How could people do it??When I saw this on the GoodReads ebook list, I thought it looked funny so I downloaded it. Oh. My. God. It's hilarious. You definitely don't need to have read the original - basic familiarity with the books is fine. I can hardly wait to read the rest of the book! less
