Review of 'Fifty Shades of Grey' on 'Goodreads'
1 žvaigždutė
This is a review of a rework.
As far as fan fiction is concerned, 50 Shades of Grey and Master of the Universe (based on the Twilight Saga) are essentially the same. A major difference is that Edward and Bella’s names have been changed to Christian and Anastasia, respectively. My knowledge of this comes from the fact that I have both and that I switch between them occasionally while reading with no difficulty.
To me, it seems obvious. There is no difference in the mannerisms of the characters. There are even similarities between the things they say and what the original characters said. Especially Edward’s “dazzle” line and asking Bella to trust him. Besides being incompetent in the romantic dependency, her mother remarried. Edward’s troubled past still motivates Bella to save him from himself. The only difference now is that Edward can hit Bella when she strays too far.

Christian Grey is condescending, controlling, possessive, and cruel. It is impossible for Ana to behave as she normally would. Therefore, she puts up with it. She believes that by giving him what he wants, when he wants, and as often as he wants, she will eventually be able to win him over. What are the chances of it working? Most likely in the books. How does it work in reality? In most cases, no. How various women will waste their lives on some jerk because they have read shit like this and think it will come true for them? I have known women like this. There’s a sad, lonely side to him, and if I could only understand what’s wrong, I could change him!
There seems to be a theme of rape. Christian tells Ana he enjoys having complete and total control over another person. Not just in the bedroom, but in Ana’s entire life. He cannot yield when Ana rejects, plunging on regardless, confident she will enjoy whatever he does, so why bother ceasing?
There are women out there who think this is romantic.
As the book finishes, Ana flees in emotional turmoil because Christian cannot provide what she needs.
Now I’m wondering why this book is so popular. What is it about this book that appeals to so sufficient women?
