50 Shades of Grey

[Lilith]

Any body read that smutt? Cause it is in my summer plans.

[gigi]

I have to say, I hadn't heard about it til it appeared on the cover of my Entertainment Weekly. I am thinking it might be this year's beach book. Although I have heard mixed reviews, I still believe it would be a good read...

[Oldfart]

Wiki notes that "The book's erotic nature and the perceived demographic of its fanbase led to it being dubbed "Mommy Porn" by some news agencies."

It's Twilight fan-fiction with the main characters renamed, so if you're not into the Twilight thing, this may not be for you.

Okay the Twilight reference made me just say ew....

[Oldfart]

I'm not a Twihard either, but it may have evolved beyond that.

I may have to try reading it, unless you want to be my book-double.

[ShadowDancer]

Lilith,

I have downloaded all 3 of the 50 Shades books for my Kindle. (i got them free!!) and will be listening to them/reading them soon.

[ShadowDancer]

I have finished book one of this...and honestly, the ONLY similarity I see at all to Twilight is the obsession between Christian & Ana. But, at the same time, it has a different quality to it than that. I am currently 25% into book 2.

[Oldfart]

Thank you, book-stunt-double of mine.

Am I enjoying the books?

[ShadowDancer]

I am... :) Ive already jumped my husband once...lol...poor man,may not get any rest....

[Lilith]

[ShadowDancer]

You've an overactive imagination, Lil. I might jump over Mr ShadowDancer to get to ShadowDancer, but that's not quite the same thing.

:roflmao:

[Fangtasia]

After seeing this i just ordered the 3 books.....could do with some smut reading lol

[ShadowDancer]

Definitely LOTS of smut!! I can verify that for sure! I just started book #3 tonight...should have it finished tomorrow.

[Lilith]

I wish I didn't like it so much. I really like it. Really. I should have known when their first kiss is in an elevator and they have sex the first time in Seattle that it was going to suck me in.

[Oldfart]

Resonance, it's called.

[ShadowDancer]

I wish I didn't like it so much. I really like it. Really. I should have known when their first kiss is in an elevator and they have sex the first time in Seattle that it was going to suck me in.

IKR! I was sucked in fast in book 1 and it's not been any different with the others... I'm still working on book 3, but but I've only got about 30% left.

[ShadowDancer]

I finished this series finally...it ended way milder than I thought it would...but I enjoyed the read none the less.

[Aqua]

Are you kidding?

You're not, are you?

:o

Art imitates life? ;)

[jennaflower]

I read all 3 in about 5 days... Couldn't put the books down. I really hope that the author continues the story... Loved it :)

I've read that there are attempts being made to get it made into a movie... I can't even begin to imagine any actor who would have the ability to pull it off... Or even a movie company who had the courage!!!

[Lilith]

Me neither. In my mind Mr. Grey was not 27. He was like 37 or 47. So I would prefer someone like

or maybe

[Lilith]

I need someone I can believe is that hungry and wounded.

[gigi]

Robert Downey Jr please or Daniel Craig. Perfect choices, both of them

Made me laugh....

[Lilith]

some have suggest him as Mr. Grey http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2364977920/nm1165110

[jennaflower]

I believe that IF they actually are successful in getting it onto the big screen.... They will have to cast relatively unknowns... I still can't imagine any established actor or actress with the guts to put themselves out there in such a raw and vulnerable way and complete way.. As IF they were to stay true to the incredible books, there wouldn't be anything left to the imagination...Tho that pic of Chris Hemsworth that Lilth posted.... YUM!!!

Still highly doubt that any movie company will take the risk... Which is pretty disappointing for all the thousands of people who loved the books and want more!!!!

[Lilith]

I am 1/2 way through the last book and my ereader has died. I think of embarrassment. I am going to cry.

[Lilith]

This is the screen my KOBO is stuck on :p :hot: I guess there will be no doubt I am a perv.

[Lilith]

They want me to mail it to them and they will repair or replace the device not my virtue :p

[ShadowDancer]

HAHA! I can imagine the looks on their faces...either total :eek: or they'll be like "OMG! That's HOT!!!" LOL

[Lilith]

I bet they :fone:

[Lord Snow]

Only to find out where you live so they can come visit.

[Lilith]

Lord Snow, Too bad you don't work for Kobo :hot:

[Fangtasia]

Guess what arrived today......í am looking forward to reading them now lol

How Do I Reset My Kobo WiFi?
There are two levels of reset available on your Kobo WiFi.

A minor rest can be performed by undertaking either of the following methods:

1) Insert a bent paperclip or pin into the small reset hole on the back of your Kobo WiFi, near the lower-left corner.

2) Hold down the Power button on the top of your Kobo WiFi for 8 seconds, release the button, and then press the Power button again briefly.

did it 50 times. Is why I had to call the company.

[dicksbro]

After 50 times, what did you call them? :confused:

[Oldfart]

After being stabbed 50 times, no wonder it was dead.

[Lord Snow]

Lord Snow, Too bad you don't work for Kobo :hot:

*rapidly trying to find an application*

Damn, can't find one. Guess I'll just have to cum to you huh?

I have been thinking about Simon Baker...although he is a little old.

[Lord Snow]

You know what Lil? I just reread the post and guess what?........My warehouse refurbishes KOBO! It completely slipped my mind while I was thinking of something else slippery.

[Lilith]

If you come across mine, I apologize for being a whore :p Hide my address from any scary pervs.

[ShadowDancer]

hey Lilith...I just found a pin board on Pinterest devoted to 50 Shades! I've followed the WHOLE board! :D

came across this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcstggURnfQ&feature=player_embedded) salute to 50 shades on the pin board.

[Lilith]

OMG I freakin loved that. LOLOLOL

[Lord Snow]

You're not a whore, you just have an extremely healthy sex drive. We probably won't see it though. We only deal with returns from best buy.

[ShadowDancer]

OMG! SNL spoofed a commercial for 50 Shades! SPOOF VID (http://www.gossipcop.com/fifty-shades-of-grey-snl-video-commercial-ad-parody-mothers-day/) this cracked me up!

[Lilith]

I saw it last night. It killed me.

[Fangtasia]
