I’d like to point out that I haven’t read Fifty Shades of Grey. Naturally I wouldn’t be interested in such stuff (I don’t have a Kindle and each time I’ve been into Bordeaux recently to the bookshop where they do stock it I’ve haad one of my daughters with me so I couldn’t buy it. Not that I’d want to of course.)
Yesterday I found this link on Book Group Online, I’ve read it four times and it makes me laugh each time. Especially the bit about his tongue carressing her name.
And a friend sent me this today: Amazon Mother’s Day Commercial

Thanks, great link, I agreed with every word. I “looked inside” on Amazon, but the sample I read was both boring and badly written, and I just couldn’t summon up any desire to read any more. Well done to the author for a tremendous coup, though. 🙂
Oh, I agree, I wish I could write something as successful as that and who cares what anyone thinks of the writing ability! That said a friend had the sample extract on her Kindle and starting reading it aloud at a dinner party because people wanted to know what the book was like. She looked up after five minutes to see that two of her fellow guestds had fallen asleep.
Sorry, what were you saying? LOL . 😀
hilarious! thanks for sharing this…….. I’m not sure if I should add it to the summer reading list or not, but loving all the anti-hype around it!!
I’ve got the feeling that actually reading it might spoil my enjoyment of the articles about it.
Confirms me in my decision not to read it…
I wouldn’t dare even if I wanted to – I’d be discovered by an eagle-eyed daughter and would never hear the end of it.
Apparently there’s going to be 50 Shades merchandise. Not sure if it’ll be available in Tescos though…
What strikes me most about this craze though is how boring all these women’s sex lives must be if they are so lacking in imagination a badly written book of pseudo S&M can fire them up so much.
50 Shades merchandise?? I suppose Tescos could stock grey suits and ties…
Goodness…S and M from Tesco direct…better be careful what I order for mother…
The video was super, though…still laughing.
