The idealism of that sort of power dynamic outside of BDSM turned me off from the book. I felt like Ana didn't really know what she was getting herself into, even though she read the contract. <br /><br />@Purple Book - With that being said, Mercy wouldn't be my cup of tea either (after reading the blog post). Thank you for writing this review. It's a good place to start a conversation about BDSM. :)<br /><br />Ellen @ <a href="http://glambooklounge.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Glamorous Book Lounge</a><br />Sweetest Ambrosiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16244000403632848788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1728329635308512703.post-57469945825703180752013-09-15T14:15:25.638+02:002013-09-15T14:15:25.638+02:00Yeah, I agree with you- people who haven't exp...Yeah, I agree with you- people who haven't experienced or don't know a lot about BDSM will probably be a little shocked when they read a book with BDSM in it. I know, I was, but that's not the reason I didn't like this book. I read Original Sinners by Tiffany Reisz later and those books have some much more hardcore BDSM scense, but I loved the books, because the writing style and the story is amazing.<br /><br />I get why you didn't like FS books. The same reason I didn't like the guy in this book. I think that this book and FS trilogy are just one of those reads which people will either hate or love, because the characters and the story are far from perfect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1728329635308512703.post-38654191631975457172013-09-14T05:47:34.813+02:002013-09-14T05:47:34.813+02:00Yeah, I liked this one a lot more than you did. I...Yeah, I liked this one a lot more than you did. I think what throws off a lot of readers who don't have experience with BDSM is that...well, the thing that feels good and powerful is that you trust the person you are with, so ANYTHING can happen and you will be safe because they will stop as soon as you tell them to. So the erotica that is fun for BDSM ladies involves that danger. Does that make sense? If you're not into that shit at all, books like this must be a freaking nightmare to read.<br /><br />Conversely, I hated the Fifty Shades books for a lot of reasons, but primarily because I felt that Christian was incredibly emotionally abusive, and that is a huge turn-off for me. It would be fine in straight erotica, but when it's wrapped up to look like romance I get pretty upset.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15121967084265911599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1728329635308512703.post-18541571389188750422013-09-02T22:18:55.357+02:002013-09-02T22:18:55.357+02:00I'm not so sure about Charlie too.
