Young, arrogant, tycoon Earl Grey seduces the naïve coed Anna Steal with his overpowering good looks and staggering amounts of money, but will she be able to get past his fifty shames, including shopping at Walmart on Saturdays, bondage with handcuffs, and his love of BDSM (Bards, Dragons, Sorcery, and Magick)? Or will his dark secrets and constant smirking drive her over the edge?
Review: A delightful parody that will have you bursting out laughing. Shaffer does a fabulous job making light of 50 Shades, as well as Twilight. Readers will fall in love with Anna's inner "guidette" and her blatant naiveté (see also, stupidity). The outrageous lengths Earl Grey will go to in order to catch Anna's attention, only to dump her are equally amusing. Easy and thin, this is the perfect afternoon, easy read for all.

This does sound really funny even though I haven't read Fifty Shades of Grey. Though I feel like I've heard and read so much about it that this parody of it would still be highly amusing:)
ReplyDeleteConfession time: I haven't read Fifty Shades either! It's kind of hard not to know the general plot of it, now and days anyway.
DeleteHa! Sounds funny. The title and cover alone crack me up ;)
ReplyDeleteOh, they did get lucky on the cover, didn't they?
DeleteHaven't read Fifty Shades, but ooh, I love this. The title cracks me up--oh and the cover, too. hilarious! I will definitely check it out!
