![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It's amazing how powerful a first-person narrator can be – and what a turn off it is when you don't like her.Īnna Steele is a senior at a university who is a last-minute substitute for her roommate on the interview of a lifetime. Unfortunately for me, I found it to be melancholy and meandering, and the heroine narrator is so maudlin and wimpy I grew more and more irritated with her and with the story and had to stop. I kept trying, and going back to it more than I normally would because of the number of people who adore this book and talk about it so reverently. Readers on Twitter have told me how much they adore this book, how they love the hero, love the story, love every one of the 200k pages of this book (which ends on a cliffhanger and continues in volume two, Fifty Shades Darker).Īlas, this book didn't work for me. It has a 4.49 average after 1,728 ratings on GoodReads and 4.5 stars after 100 reviews on Amazon. So many readers have recommended this book to me.
