Does anyone want to discuss how awful 50 Shades is

That description almost makes me want to read it. Is it so bad it's good? Would it make for a good book club book? Or would the fact that my friends thought it was a good example of erotica make me die on the inside?

Haha. It truly is crap. But it's so fast. And, not unlike my fascination with Glee, sometimes things are so terrible that I truly cannot quit them.
Spoiler: this woman has more than one orgasm through her nipples alone. Her nipples! Is that even a thing?

You should write a book about that. I would read it. I might even pay for it!

I found the pdf of it and downloaded the first one. I stopped reading after she declared the guy was "so seductive" after he told her he wanted her. I started laughing and decided I wasn't wasting my time on it anymore.

You seriously do not want to know. I can't stop thinking about it. In the opposite of a can't stop thinking about it sexy way.

I haven't read it, but I am obsessed with how bad this book is and how much people love it. I have read excerpts and it is HORRIBLE.

And there's a hilarious podcast review of it, too.

I couldn't get through it. I made it to around page 100 of the first book, and I just couldn't take anymore. I'm really glad I didn't pay for it. Someone had forwarded the PDF of all three books to me. It was terrible.

I fully confess to reading the first one, and at times, not being able to put it down. Not because it was so amazing, but because I kept thinking, "I can't believe I'm reading this. I can't believe I'm reading this." For me, the first one was like a trainwreck--so bad, I couldn't turn away.

But I'm a little bit into book two and I am bored, bored, bored. I feel like all these two do is have sex. And while there's nothing wrong with that, an iota of a plot would help. Complete sentences would be good too.

(And ditto MW about the tampon scene. I really wish I could scrub that from my memory. It was awful.)

And then they soak in a nice bath of AF.

Aren't they vampires? Wouldn't AF lead to incredible cunnilingus? No need for a tampon if he's there waiting to lap it up.

Nope, in this version they are both human. They seem to have no connection to the Twilight characters, IMO.

The only connection to the characters I can see at this point is that Christian is a stalkery stalkerson to the point of tracking whatserface's cell phone and bank info. And we are supposed to believe it's romantical and OMG he's sooooo damaged but her love will totes save him. In reality he is a control freak and a nutcase. And there is very little actual BDSM in a book that's supposed to be a BDSM relationship. And why is she always surprised every time they fuck? Like, you've already boned 7 times today. Are you literally that surprised?
Also, what couple has sex that often? I have never met a guy in my life that could go over and over and over again. Even in my 20s.
And no woman has that many orgasms from vaginal sex. LIE.

I feel like I have already read it given the amount of discussion it gets on the interwebs. Are they seriously making a movie out of it, because I heard that too.

Her name is Anastasia in the book but she's based on Bella from Twilight. Also, I cannot count how many times I've read the same stupid dcomment on how "beautiful" old dude is.
