Summary :
Daunted by the singular sexual tastes and dark secrets of the beautiful, tormented young entrepreneur Christian Grey, Anastasia Steele has broken off their relationship to start a new career with a Seattle publishing house. But desire for Christian still dominates her every waking thought, and when he proposes a new arrangement, Anastasia cannot resist. They rekindle their searing sensual affair, and Anastasia learns more about the harrowing past of her damaged, driven, and demanding Fifty Shades. While Christian wrestles with his inner demons, Anastasia must confront her anger and envy of the women who came before her and make the most important decision of her life.
I just finished Book II in Fifty Shades of Grey. O M G.
Seriously got even more intense and better than the first book.
Despite all the sexual erotic sex that takes place in the book, I think the underlying reason why women or people are enjoying this series so much is simply because underneath the kinky shit, it's really about 2 people finding love and battling demons.
Great book. Five stars for sure!
I'm onto book III now, freaking out as to what I will read once I finish the series!!
I can't envision anyone else playing the role better as Christian Grey other than Ryan Gosling.
I read a huge article in Entertainment weekly, where I do believe that the Author E L James spoke of wanting Gosling to be cast for the role.
Score!
Now who'd play the innocent Ana Steele?
Personally I see Alexis Bledel as a perfect fit. She's very green, mossy, which is what the character calls for. Innocence. Virginal. Who ever is casted has to give that off.
I have been hearing about this book everywhere lately! Ellen was talking about it on her show the other day and I've seen a few bloggers mention it too. I'm so intrigued to read it... sounds like it has a bit of controversy regrading the sex scenes, but nevetheless, I'm so intrigued!

I think Ed Westwick would be awesome in the role of Grey!
ReplyDeleteI think Ryan Gosling or Ian Somerhalder would be great for Christian, and Alexis Bledel is such a great call!
ReplyDeleteI have a post on this in the works, how funny!
ReplyDeleteGosling is definitely a good pick, but I could see Matt Bomer as Christian, as well..
I can't wait!
I can't wait to start reading this series!! I just ordered the first book today and can't wait to get it!
ReplyDeleteI'm reading the second book now! I had never thought of Alexis Bledel as Anastasia! I can def see it!! Amanda Seyfried popped in my head for some reason. Maybe because she plays that bad girl lurking under innocence really well!
ReplyDeleteI think Anna Hendricks would be good as Anastasia too! She's so sweet and innocent
ReplyDeleteObsessed with this series! Read all 3 books in one week. Alexis is a great call. I can't wait to see who they cast.
ReplyDeleteOmg I finished this book in less than a week! I've been stalling to start the third and final book (for like a month!) because I don't know what I'll read/look forward to reading after I finish!!

ReplyDeleteseriously can't thank you enough for posting about this series when you first starting reading, they are just delectable. I agree that Alexis Bledel would be perfection as Ana, I have heard rumors of Emma Roberts too.

ReplyDeleteI've been wondering who could play these characters, and I think you have picked two perfect ones! I can see Blake Lively playing Kate. What do you think?
ReplyDeleteKristen Stewart has finally responded to rumors that she's a favorite to play Anastasia Steele
ReplyDeleteI loved the books. I should agree these are the best written books.
