    When literature student Anastasia Steele interviews successful entrepreneur Christian Grey, she finds him very attractive and deeply intimidating. Convinced that their meeting went badly, she tries to put him out of her mind - until he turns up at the store where she works part-time, and invites her out. Unworldly and innocent, Ana is shocked to find she wants this man. And, when he warns her to keep her distance, it only makes her want him more.
    "Waste of time, money and expectations."

    Story

    It stands as testimony to the disappointing nature of this book that I am now searching the internet for a plot summary, praying that I find one so that I will no longer have to waste another 10 hours of my life in finding out the ending. The sexual content is neither original nor riveting, frankly the constant bombardment of explicit scenes eventually becomes a monotonous drone to the ear. When I think of other novels of a similar nature that I've read in the past (such as the Outlander series), it becomes apparent that what is lacking to this not captivating novel is any attempt at a plot besides appealing to the baser instincts of the reader.
    Save your money and save your time, or at least don't bother reading past the first part of the download, all that follows is of grating annoyance.
