[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]50 Shades. All my friends loved it. I flipped through and what I read made me sick to my stomach. That kind of garbage is why so many women end up in abusive relationships. [/quote]

Agree. Terrible. Even worse that my mother in law gave me the books and raved about them. I can’t even watch the movies.

For me, anything by Jane Austen or the Brontë sisters. I don’t get how people can read those books over and over. [/quote]
This is the most fascinating post I have read in years. Your MIL gave you not just one but all the 50 Shades books? Your MIL??? Can you tell us what, do you think, she was intending? Why would she give you these? Was it encouragement? Was her thinking, My son tells me he needs to spice things up a little in the bedroom, or what?  This post just made my day! I do hope you’ll follow up.[/quote]

Honestly I think she just really likes the books and thought I would enjoy them. I had no idea what they were about when she gave them to me as it was when they were first becoming popular. We pass books back and forth often and she reads a lot so giving me books to read wasn’t strange in itself. I was just a bit shocked when I started reading. Sometimes I pass the books she gives me to my mom after I’m done. Not this time![/quote]
