(2nd book in Fifty Shades trilogy)
Wow. I seriously don't know what possessed me to read the second book after the first "eye rolling, lip biting, smoldering look, etc." Fifty Shades irritated me so much. Okay, so I was hoping that Anastasia would finally learn some self respect and Christian would learn how to treat her -- and I was challenged to read the whole series before making a judgement call. Nope. Once again we are led through a flimsy storyline that is very disappointing. I can sum the book up pretty shortly - Anastasia and Christian resume their "romance". Christian buys the company where Anastasia works and fires her boss (who seriously got what he deserved and was a redeeming quality in the book). One of Christian's old "flames" is actually quite crazy and stalks Anastasia. Elena (aka Mrs. Robinson) gets her just desserts. And, yep, Christian declares his love for Anastasia and asks her to be his wife. The only part of the book that was interesting was Christian's background -- why he is the way he is. Granted your past, no matter how troubling, does not negate/excuse how badly you treat people in the future ... but there you go. All in all, I'm glad I'm done with the second and flat out refuse to read the third.
