I was not a fan. I liked the previous two, but this is the worst out of the three. In books you normally either get plot or smut. This book has very little plot and very little smut. I was bored most of the time and tired of the main character. The action was only like 20 pages and then followed by all the characters being boring.

Meh.

I liked this book the least of the three. I liked the extras at the end; to me it was like a peek into EL James's writing notebook - character sketches, backstory pieces, etc.

Was anyone else bothered by the inconsistency that Christian is, in addition to a highly successful young corporate mogul, concerned about the livelihoods of his employees yet decides to move the production of hulls for his shipbuilding business to Taiwan because it's cheaper to do so there? Or that he is a philanthropist of the highest order yet had no qualms about buying a company, dismantling it, and selling it in pieces for profit, all to screw over someone? Granted, the guy deserved to be screwed over, but what about the employees of *that* company?

Maybe it's just me.

Oh, and some of the smutty stuff was not quite as hot, which was a bummer.

como el 2do, dejo de ser interesante para pasar a ser una novela super-rosa.- una cenicienta moderna,donde el magnate le da todo a alguien que no lo pensaba. y es un amor enorme, unico y salvador. lo que toda mina quiere

SOOOOOOO sad it's over! Ultimate guilty pleasure.... I hope she finishes the book from Christian's point of view --- is it sad that I will totally read that?

Some very unexpected twists...but still leaves you wanting more. I was really enjoying the last few 'chapters.' Maybe there's something else in the works?
