So I finally caved to the 50 Shades of Grey phenomenon and, honestly, I don't understand what the hype is about. The more I read the more I hated the book, especially the characters, not to mention all the *ahem* activities. I'm about 1/3 of the way into the second book (why I'm wasting my time, I have no idea) and it hasn't gotten any better.
I'm not a fan of the characters ( I want to punch Christian Grey in the face) and the storyline makes me literally roll my eyes. I just don't believe any of it...the love story, the personalities, the "hobbies." It's not believable at all.
What gives? Why does everyone love this book so much?

OMG. I hated the book also.
SO FRIGGIN LAME. I couldnt even finish the first book. The writing style drove me batty.
I don't get it either.
I guess I'm just not as sophisticated as my BFF ;). I thought they were really fun, easy reads and I got very wrapped up in the characters. Realstic???- definitely not. But that's part of the fun of reading!
I really liked the 2nd half of the 2nd book and on more. It became a little scary and I even cried. Maybe I am just really emotional. I am a cancer after all. :)
