That is so funny! If only its source material didn't take itself so serious.

This is a hilarious parody. Extremely quotable, very witty, and very aware of what makes the original bad (namely, not that it's porn, but that it's terrible porn. If I ever get my hands on the full book, I'll definitely read it.

HAHAHA! oh my gosh this book is hilarious! I had a smile plastered on my face almost the whole time I was reading it.

I've only read the first couple of chapter of Fifty Shades of Grey, so the 3 chapters of this I read made sense.

It also has a Brony reference, although it's written as 'Bronie'. But still, it made me go:


Hahaha.

I've never laughed as much as I have reading a book, as I did with this (Wow, that sentence sounds really wrong grammatically. Oh well.) I usually don't read comedy books, but after that I might look into it.

I found this book by accident in the free section. I was looking for something quick to read, and quite honestly who doesn't love a free book?

I first saw this and instantly rolled my eyes. I thought great another bad parody of an even worse book. It truly is anything but bad. I read this in one sitting, which is far different than the real fifty shade of grey books. I loved the characters that Andrew Shaffer created. They were perfect. I also loved that every sentence on every page is laced with the most amazing sarcasm. It brought me back to every thing I thought about the real books.

I am just sad it wasn't longer.

The book had amazing lines like:

"Damn my hair – it’s fifty shades of fucked up. The situation I’m in is fifty shades of fucked up. "

Which literally made me laugh so hard my abs hurt.

My favorite line in this book would be this one:

"I walk through the glass doors and into the lobby, which is also floor-to-ceiling glass and steel. This fascinates me, because buildings back in Portland are made of grass and mud."

I think everyone should start reading this book right now. Don't be a stick in the mud. I promise you won't regret it.

I have read the three chapters on the blog, and now, I have also read Fifty Shames of Earl Grey and loved it!

So much fun!
