The other review was positive one towards the book but when I read the synopsis I was already pretty sure this book wasn’t for me. The erotic nature was enough to put me off. Thank you for your honest review you’ve really confirmed that this book is not worth my time. I’m going to check out your suggestions instead.

The language and sex-scenes being boring is so true – I am a through-and-through Nora Roberts fan. However, I liked the second book – there was a solid story there.

Sensationalism in my opinion. I know of several people that are reading this book and they are not big readers, but because others have remarked about the subject they too are enticed to read it.
Will I read it? Nah, I have so many more books that I want to read that will fill my mind and heart with pleasure and enjoyment.
Thanks.

Thank you for your clear-headed review, Meghan! I’m so so sick of the hype around these books.

It sounds like pure garbage. I think it’s so popular because everyone makes a big deal about it being controversial. So people go out and read it based on that. Is it a rumour or fact that the author started out this story as steamy fan fiction based off of Bella and Edward of Twilight? Because if so, that is so wrong. Oh so wrong.
