6th, 7th, 8th books down

Alright, The Hunger Games was an amazing book! It took me awhile to finish, but not because I wasn't interested life, work, and school got in the way.  I actually watched the movie before I finished the book, which is something I don't like to do, but I was still interested in the specific details the movie left out (and let me tell you there were a lot).  There isn't much more for me to say here except that I can't wait to read the second one (have it on my shelf).

My 7th and 8th books are part of a series that I was intrigued by due to the amount of coverage it was getting, Fifty Shades of Grey and Fifty Shades Darker.
 



 

 I will admit that I enjoy romance novels, but these books are a little above and beyond that.  You have to prepare yourself for the errotic nature of these books before delving in.  I do love these books though, the plot line is amazing and I can't get the characters out of my head.
You have Ana (Anastasia) and Christian who meet for the first time when Ana interviews Christian, as a favor for a friend.  She starts the interview off by tripping into his office and the story only gets better from there.  Christian is a very self-depreciating person and does some interesting things behind closed doors.  Ana gets caught up in Christian's life and begins to care about him in a way she thinks she shouldn't.
I have to say that as the first book ended I realized that I immediately needed to buy the second book; you can't help but wonder what is going to happen with these two characters.  I have not started the third book, but I have a feeling that it is going to be just as intense as the first two and I can't wait to get my hands on it.  I know that these characters are going to be in my head for awhile and I am happy to say that I don't mind.


Til next time.
