I've also heard that it's spectacularly good and that the books are phenomenal. Ashamed to say I forced myself through the 50 Shades trilogy and the only good thing I can say about it is that the third book has a good story line. The writing is still awful, the characters are still fucktards but...

I'm enthralled with Game of Thrones, and I've yet to read one of the books or watch an episode (I've resisted watching sure I'm going to start Book 1, lol...good intentions). When I have time, I keep telling myself. <br /><br />Anyway, great article! I have jumped on the book bandwagon before, with trepidation. I'm always cautious with books that hit with almost too big of a splash.<br /><br />Dottie :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08688849410604429533noreply@blogger.com
