It has only been 24 hours and already the internet is ablaze with some of the more noteworthy excerpts from E.L. James’ Grey: Fifty Shades of Grey As Told by Christian.
The book, which features the same characters as previous titles, is written from the perspective of Christian Grey rather than that of Anastasia Steele. Here’s Express:
Whereas she was an innocent, at least in the beginning, Grey is a man who knows what he wants from the start and is already experienced in all the explicit acts…
Readers more used to all the X-rated scenes being filtered through Anastasia’s female sensibility may be unsettled by Christian’s more aggressive voice.
Twitter users were quick to pick their most memorable moments although they came from slightly different angles:
No matter how much criticism the book attracts, you can almost guarantee it will top best seller lists across the globe. This will lead to more ‘girls nights’, leaving us gents to gather in large groups and consume beer.
Every cloud has a silver lining.
