Not the norm..

Usually my posts are about what's going on in our crazy busy life and our rambunctious 2 1/2 year old. Not today! I just wanted to do a little post about the book 50 Shades of Grey. It's a trilogy and considered "mommy porn." <--- I hate that word. Anywho, practically everyone in my girlfriend circle was reading it. I'm usually the LAST to join in on anything. I had mixed feelings about it and for some reason I thought it had a completely different story line behind it. I knew it was raunchy but I thought the woman character was married and started a "fling" with some guy in her office. I'm not much on the whole, "cheating" while married thing ya know :) So it didn't interest me in the slightest. EVERY single time the girls and I got together, the book is ALL they talked about. I finally did some research and found out, my initial thought on the book was completely WRONG. It's about a college student who interviews a very attractive, wealthy, business man for her college newspaper. So I did it. I bought the book, not the trilogy and now looking back, I should have bout all 3 ;) I started the book last Friday morning. Five pages in, I COULDN'T put it down. And that was before all the raunchy stuff happened. Needless to say, I finished all 3 books within 6 days. My friend Laural finished in 5. BAM! It actually is a really great story. Let me warn you though, it will make you giggle, blush, and you will be asking yourself, "DID I REALLY JUST READ THAT?" These books are out of my norm, I usually stick with the inspirational, uplifting, books BUT this was a great "outside of the box" type of book, WAY OUTSIDE THE BOX. If you have some time, read it!

Laters Baby!
