"Fair point, well made Ms. Steele."

"Oh my--what would I do to be his? He's the only man who has ever set the blood racing through my body. Yet he's so antagonizing, too.".........Anastasia Steele

Did anyone here not like the series? I know people seem to either love it or hate it. With the exception of a couple of little parts I loved it.

RC--Only a few of us have read it. Autumn has read it and starbrites is in the process. I have told them we have a thread. Hopefully we will have some posting going on. Some of the girls here like "real" BDSM and some won't read any. I have no idea how many we can lure into our playroom! Hey, Nikkie, if you're around....we need a "spanky" smilie! Bree doesn't like that idea. Like she's ever been spanked!

Well, I read it only because I had to know what all the hype was about. For a long time I wanted no part of it. But my curiosity kept screaming at me. And next thing I know I can't put the book down. Housework was neglected. My family had the nerve to try to talk to me while I was reading & ask ridiculous questions like "Are you gonna cook supper?" To which I replied "Ummm, no I'm not. Here's some money. Go get yall something."

@ readerchic...! And then when I was reading it, you had to stay close to the computer all day to just tell me, "It'll be okay. Just read a little further. There's a reason. It isn't that bad. Take a break for a little while. Yes, it is intense." I will never forget that! I have never required so much hand holding to get through a book.

HA! And I was happy to do it. A friend done the same for me when I read it. After that terrible scene toward the end of book 1, I emailed my friend & told her I was done. I just couldn't read any more but she talked me into it & I was so glad she did. And I didn't want you to miss out on such a wonderful story either. And actually I don't think it would've had the same impact without "that" scene. It was like a turning point.

So many great scenes. The first book was so damn intense it made me itchy! You had to keep battering at me to keep me going!

"We are balanced on the delicate seesaw that is our strange arrangement--at different ends, vacillating, and it tips and sways......" Ana Steele

ETA: ".....a contract saying what we will and won't do. I need to know your limits, and you need to know mine. This is consensual, Anastasia." Christian Grey

"I want you to become well acquainted, on first name terms if you will, with my favorite and most cherished part of my body. I'm very attched to this." Christian Grey

It's so big and growing."

I haven't started it yet shay but I'm working on getting to it. Right now I'm still in a funk. I feel like I lost my reading groove and I don't know how to get it back.

SB--Start 50 Shades....your reading grove will come back. FAST!

........he clambers out of the bath, giving me my first full glimpse of the Adonis, divinely formed, that is Christian Grey. My inner goddess has stopped dancing and is staring, too, openmouthed and drooling slightly.......

Snippet from The Contract

She (the sub) shall without query or hesitation offer the Dominant such pleasure as he may require and she shall accept without query or hesitation his training, guidance, and discipline in whatever form it may take.
_____
The Dominant accepts the Submissive as his, to own, control, dominate, and discipline during the Term. The Dominant may use the Submissive's body at any time during the Allotted Times or any agreed additional times in any manner he deems fit, sexually or otherwise.

I went ahead a got it shay and I will start it tonight. I hope this gets my groove back.

I am so happy, SB! Post everything.....good or bad!

I will do that!

10% in! Not much has happened yet. I didn't have that feeling of wanting to put the book down or pick something new so I'm going to take that as a good sign.

Not much happening? Ana has met Adonis...!

Ana's inner musings on considering whether or not she wants to sign a D/s contract with Christian Grey.....

....You can't seriously be considering this.....My subconscious sounds sane and rational, not her usual snarky self. My inner goddess is jumping up and down, clapping her hands like a five-year-old. Please, let's do this....otherwise we'll end up alone with lots of cats and your classic novels to keep you company.

The only man I'v ever been attracted to, and he comes with a bloody contract, a flogger, and a whole world of issues.

"I don't remember reading about nipple clamps in the Bible. Perhaps you were taught from a modern translation." Ana Steele
