okay so let me tell you two or three things about this book. This was the MOST degrading, chauvinist and masochist story I have ever read in my entire life. This story is NOT about love. This is about how a stupid girl gets hooked with the most dickhead in the world. And now I get it, I GET IT that this ain't the story about a girl getting raped because "consent" was written all over this book. The girl aparently liked the fact of being slapped and everything. And that is exactly what pissed me off. I just wanted to slap and punch Anna for being so stupid, inmature and naive. The girl was DUMB. And not only while she was with Christian but in the entire social life around her. I mean seriously! at least try to behave normal with your best friend who is a GIRL just like you! or at least with your mom! And now let's go back with the narration. Vocabulary like "holy cow" and "my inner goddess" WHO SAYS THAT?! No one! gosh... but well, what can you expect from the author that wrote the entire trilogy on her BLACKBERRY. I really have to thank myself for not spending a cent on this book.
