Please don't hate me but when a book is picked up in the hopes of good smut, I expect good smut. This was not it. Out of all the words for female genitalia this author could have chosen... If I have to read he touched my sex one more time 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ana is an indecisive whiny main character. Grey has no character development and I get that mystery is part of his persona but give me something. My favorite characters were side characters Kate and Taylor who had very little to do with the story. 

This may be the first time I've ever said this but the movie was better.
