Fifty Shades of what is going on here?



My friend texted me a while ago to order a book called Fifty Shades of Grey on iBooks or Kindle.  She didn't really expand, just said it would be a fun distraction.  I tried for a minute but couldn't figure out iBooks on my phone (not that smart).  A while later we were talking and she said she had to finish the book she was reading.  I thought she was talking about our book club book and said, "Oh isn't that book horrible?"  She said, "No, not that book, I'm talking about my cliterature."  HA!  That may be the best hybrid word since shoptailing.  Well, I figured out iBooks immediately.  And after mentioning it to a few people I found out that this kind of twisted but in a fun way trilogy by E.L. James is sweeping the nation, one suburban housewife at a time.  Everyone I've talked to who has read them says that they 100% are having more sexy times with their husbands.  They are sexting, leaving parties early to love it up, skipping dessert.  So, I thought I would pass that along to you.  Cliterature.  Go on and get it (on).

Love,
Kristen

  2. Let me amend that comment, I'm not really single. But if you like it then you shoulda put a ring on it, right? Thus, I will say I'm single until the State of CA sees it differently.

  3. Dum - No book will give you what your 'It's Friday night in Beverly Hills' dress did.

  4. I'm half way through the second book. The only thing that really annoys me is the English accent I'm catching, especially in Christians dialog. "Fair point, well made."?? "What time shall I fetch you?"??? "Are you still cross with me?"?? I could go on forever. What believable American man would ever. Ever. She should have just made him English. Other than that it's pretty hot.

    Love,
