Grey: Fifty Shades of Grey As Told By Christian Paperback – 18 June 2015

I was a bit hesitant to start this book, as I had already read all the three parts of the 50 Shades Series (narrated by Ana). I don't like to reread books.But this one was quite different. Though I had known the story already, Christian's point of narration gave an altogether new perspective to the plot. Didn't knew his side at all, and this book was so welcoming in that way. Even though Christian only had sexual interest in Ana initially, he had a special corner for her in his heart. And the way his mind perceives things, and his thought processes, fears - while awaiting Ana's replies, during conversations, while emailing her etc are so great and transparent in this book. And that makes the whole difference from the other 50 shades books.Great writing, and lovely Christian !

If you're a FSOG fan, you'd probably like it. But, this book being Christian's POV it is quite draggy.Worth reading once & amazingly, it could be finished in one sitting.Amazon did a great job by delivering before the delivery date.The book had 'shady' pages and 'If' rough handled, it might tear.Don't have any great expectations.;)

First love is like a shower of cool Rian on a sunny day, can't describe how escatic and tingle I was while reading itThanks E.L. JamesYou're a genius

First of all thanks to amazon for delivering the book before time and in good condition. The readers who have loved fifty shades trilogy will surely love it....best book series ever.some people believe it only has sex,but they are wrong cause it also has a beautiful story line.I have seen some people write that it is same as 1st part of the trilogy, but they fail to understand that maybe same things happen but reading the feelings of christian is awesome.It tells about the nightmares of christian,his passion for ana and much more!!.... Once u pick up the book u can't keep it back.I am really grateful to E L James for writing this.......it is a must read for all fifty shades fans and others........i m waiting for its next part!!!!!

The book is a romance but with a heavy influence of BDSM. The male protagonist is drawn to this secretive lifestyle due to his troubled childhood, and he is drawn to Ana, who is inexperienced with regards to this lifestyle. Having different opinions and expectations from a relationship, the book takes us on their journey of understanding each other, making amends to accommodate each other simply because they cannot stay apart. It is sensuous, intriguing, and is unintentionally (or intentionally) romantic.It is an interesting world to be in, where almost everything is near perfection. Where the man is the most ideal one (yes he has a troubled past, but doesn't everyone love a bad, troubled boy?), and the girl is demure on the onset only to blossom into a smart, independent, sexy and a kind spirit. It is an interesting chase, an interesting evolution of a relationship with a lot of intensely sensual moments.If you love books that are romantic and sensuous, you are sure to devour this real quick. Or else, the ordinariness of the story might just bore you no end.

I have already read fifty shades of grey and other two parts but I think that's my insane love which force me to read this novel. My love for fifty shades is at such a high rate that no one can imagine and definitely I fall in love with this novel too.such a tremendously good novel that m not able to explain in words. I think everyone has to read this novel definitely. If I have million stars m ready to give it that amount of stars.

A couple of year ago i have been chatting with my female friend, suddenly she asked me what's up, i said just reading a book and she asked which, then i said THE KITE RUNNER, she got excited because she was too reading a book which is FIFTY SHADES OF GREY, suddenly i said what the story is about, confident gal told me about whole story, and given me warning that, not to read this kind of erotic books. Now i bought this book and rode first chapter and according to me it's amazing for getting know fictitious world of united kingdom's thoughts..... now i am gonna read this, mayhem it would be awesome and long journey of reading of 550 pages for Indian average student. Specially thank you Amazon for providing me quality book at reasonable price. Let it be more erotic. Right to read.

Intriguing and much more entertaining then the main trilogy with no "inner goddess" and "oh my" stuff. When you read "Grey" you really acknowledge hard life of Christian Grey. Like the main trilogy, the book did not bore me and it was a page turner. Christian's hard childhood, his nightmares, his attraction towards Ana and his thought process is really refreshing keeping one attached to the story line.I wish something like this could have had been written from Ana's point of view too apart from all the boring clumsiness and "oh my's!"
