Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James

1.0

I am not sute that this book is worth even a star... It lacks a good plot - everything is amazingly predictable, it has a slow pace of developing any kind of action, the sex moments are boring beyond belief, the vocabulary is insufficient. The characters are predictably portrayed and lack development in any kind - Ana is unexperienced which automatically makes her shy, blushing-a-lot and so on and so on, and Christian is sexy, hot, breath-taking, bla-bla-bla *insert other synonyms of sexy here, please! E.L.James seems to be unable to find some* ... In cocnlusion - a book not worth my time. I doubt I'll read the sequels.

P.S.:Maybe after all it deserves a star... Just because it somehow made it into a book and I have respect for books. So... one star for paper despoliation!

Thrilling! I couldn't leave the book u til I read it! Glad I read it after I watched the movie, so I enjoyed both. Mr. Dashner has created one amazing antiutopic world in which every second was worth spending!

3.0

The whole books bring the feeling that Lagercrantz just wanted to write another Salander book. The story jumps from now to the past with no regards to Larsson's writing and is completely boring. The end comes way too fast and lacks any conclusion whatsoever.

I liked the previous Millennium books but this one doesn't feel like part of them. A separate story, maybe, but not a Millennium book.
