I have wonder about this book myself. Thanks for stopping by. New follower.
ReplyDeleteI have major curiosity for this book just because I've heard so much about it. It sounds like it's a book that people either love or loathe, with no in-between. The synopsis scares me a little, I have yet to get into erotica :p
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and Happy Friday!

I have a huge curiousity over this book because I've heard so many mixed things about it. People hate the writing but love the story, or people just hate the whole thing altogether ... I'm definitely intrigued, but I don't think I'd go out and buy it. Maybe get it from the library (if they get it!), but not buy it ... I've bought way too many BAD books to want to get stung again.
ReplyDeleteHappy FF! :)
Thanks for stopping by my blog! And Awesome that you loved it! I was to scared to buy it lol xD

ReplyDeleteFollowing from FF - sorry it's taken me a while to get round to you! It's my first week joining in, I hope you might have time to visit my FF post.
I did the same with 50 Shades of Gray! But I ended up completely tearing my hair out over it. I kept thinking, "Man, this sounds familiar. Why does this sound familiar? I know I've read this before..." because I used to be a huge Twilight Fanfiction reader. And lo and behold, the author of Master of the Universe, a Twilight fanfiction, just went in and inserted different names for Bella and Edward, and found out what spellcheck was. Then she self-published it.
ReplyDeleteAnd then all of my feelings hit the fan, because I'm avidly against plagiarism (even intellectual plagiarism) and... yeah. I enjoyed the book, but it should've stayed as a fanfiction.
:/
