I think this is the most special re-read that I've done for this book. I've re-read this countless times. What makes this one special is that I'm fresh from reading Christian's thoughts. 
 I now know how he really thinks. 
 My perfectly imperfect hero. Christian surely swept me off my feet again. 
 This book bared all of his vulnerabilities to Ana. I love all of his sides. I stand by my first assessment of this book. It's indeed darker and sweeter. It explains more of Christian's past and it makes way for his and Ana's future.
