OH MY MY MY. This book had me gone crazy for weeks now. It actually got my attention few days before my Christmas break, and I've decided that I would just read this during the 1st day of my vacation (cause based from the reviews, I have this feeling that it would drive me nuts and thus, I'll ended up bothered during class). For the first few chapters, I though that this is just another rich-guy-met-poor-girl-fell-in-love-then-had-happily-ever-after story, and I got disappointed because I had enough of that cliche already. BUT, as I get to the chapter where Christian Grey slowly unravels his secret, (including the Red Room of Pain, Dom/Sub ) I stopped for awhile and googled BDSM (cause honestly, I have 0 knowledge about that), and yeah, thanks to google & wikipedia, I had my answers. 
 Christian and Ana's story is full of sincerity, honesty and I did fell in love with their characters. They're witty, romantic and serious at the same time. I love reading the part where they're emailing each other---naught Christian + witty Ana. "Laters, baby" ;) :> 
 The ending just broke my heart. Tears ran down my cheek while Ana's running away from Christian. I felt the pain between the two of them. And thank God I had a copy of the 2nd book already Fifty Shades Darker because I can't wait to read it! 
 Awesome work! E.L. James can't wait for the release of the 3rd book
