I wasn't aware of that until recently. If the reading public is ready to accept fan fiction packaged in mass market paperbacks sold at the grocery store, that's all good. I just hope no one is pretending it's anything but that.
I appreciate the value and significance of most forms of consensual sex and even enjoy reading books with a little spice, so I can't fault readers for their curiosity. I read a few pages, however, and like someone said in the video clip, it is pretty "wordy." Sometimes less is more.
The book might have appealed more to me had Christian Grey been a vampire (not the sparkling kind, though).

Walking, stumbling on these shadowfeet
Part of the seduction of most religions is the idea that if you just say the right things and believe really hard, your salvation will be at hand.
With Jediism. No one is coming to save you. You have to get off your ass and do it yourself - Me

I LOVE that video!!! I saw it before I read the book and nearly died I laughed so hard 
As for the book... my friends and I have a rule. You have to read the book before you see the movie. Currently I regret this rule. I spent more time rolling my eyes and huffing at its utter stupidity than anything else. Ive read software manuals that were better written.
Im looking forward to the movie though.... but we arent going for the story line :evil:
