When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating. The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him. Unable to resist Ana's quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, Grey admits he wants her, too-but on his own terms.
 
Shocked yet thrilled by Grey's singular erotic tastes, Ana hesitates. For all the trappings of success-his multinational businesses, his vast wealth, his loving family-Grey is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to control. When the couple embarks on a daring, passionately physical affair, Ana discovers Christian Grey's secrets and explores her own dark desires.

Erotic, amusing, and deeply moving, the Fifty Shades Trilogy is a tale that will obsess you, possess you, and stay with you forever.

This book is intended for mature audiences.

    Erotic nature aside, a great read!
    by Jennifer Vala

    I had never read an erotic novel before and I was definitely skeptical as to whether I would like this book or not. I had heard from friends and family that it was great so I bought the box set. The erotic nature of the book wasn't anything that put me outside of my comfort zone, and the actual plot line of the novel was definitely something I enjoyed. I would describe this book as Twilight meets erotica (after all, it was originally based off of Twilight fan fiction!), and I would definitely recommend this book for someone who enjoyed the plot line of those books. Throughout the novel, there is a lot of different music mentioned, and I found myself listening to these songs on YouTube to get a better understanding of the nature of what I was reading. I explored E L James' website and found that she had all of the music mentioned throughout the book listed there. I would definitely recommend taking a look at the "soundtrack" for the book at www.eljamesauthor.com. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this book, as well as the remaining two books in the series. It has a beautiful plot, and the characters are developed well overly the course of the series. A DEFINITE recommendation! :)

    I agree with Jennifer's comments above. Erotic nature aside, the books are spellbinding!! I love getting lost in the story!! I too read Book 1 and 2 in record time and just starting book 3. I can't put them down. It draws you in. Love the characters.. Want to meet Christian Grey! Wish she could keep writing..don't want these to end at book 3! This set is a MUST have!
