Now this was the story I was originally expecting!! And I absolutely loved it. The series went from being a “soft-porn” novel, to this extremely moving romantic novel. The sex scenes are still there for all those out there who enjoy that part of the story. (hinthint: your gonna love the pool table scene)
Christian Grey. What can I say! Right from the beginning of this book we can see that he is really trying hard to make this relationship work and its really cute! He’s so kind and loving with Ana, which makes the reader fall in love with him (I certainly know I did).
What you learn about him in this book is heartbreaking and you can’t help but feel sorry for him. Just the thought of any young child in that situation is sad enough. E L James did a great job on this side of the story. I almost shed a tear!
It was also inspiring to learn how he had such a horrific childhood and is now one of Seattles most powerful businessmen.
However, his possessiveness (if that’s even a proper word) with Ana is still kind of creepy.
Which brings me to my next point, Ana is AMAZING in this book. The way she stands up against Mrs Robinson is really cool! And when she beats up her boss. Brilliant! She’s become less of “Bella Swan-Twilight” and more of her own character. It’s like she’s “grown-up”
The way she answered Christian’s proposal was brilliant. It was clever and original. I wonder how many women will be saying yes like this?
My favourite part in the book is when Mrs Grey attacks Mrs Robinson. I was literally cheering her on. I even fist-pumped. I was just so glad that this lady has finally been caught and told where to go!
And finally, the witty emails between Christian and Ana are back. They’re sexy yet make us L.O.L. Absolutely perfect.
As for the cliff-hanger for Fifty Shades Freed, things are about to get more interesting!
