“Grey” By E.L. James Review

Christian Grey exercises control in all things; his world is neat, disciplined, and utterly empty—until the day that Anastasia Steele falls into his office, in a tangle of shapely limbs and tumbling brown hair. He tries to forget her, but instead is swept up in a storm of emotion he cannot comprehend and cannot resist. Unlike any woman he has known before, shy, unworldly Ana seems to see right through him—past the business prodigy and the penthouse lifestyle to Christian’s cold, wounded heart.  

I need to say that the story line of this first book is much better from Christian Grey’s perspective than from Anastasia’s.

I gave the original first book from Anastasia’s perspective a 2 star review, because her perspective didn’t engage me or interested me so much as from Christian Grey’s.

However its important to say that I’m not a fan of this series. Because its way to overrated and it isn’t as good as people claim it to be.

The book is interesting because we get to learn what is going on through Christian’s head. There is something unique and interesting hearing this story from Christian’s perspective. And it for sure adds much more to it.

The plot here is the same as the first book in the original fifty shades of grey trilogy. But there are some differences because it’s from Christian’s perspective and we follow his life during his relationship with Anastasia. 

The writing style here was okay for the most part. The writing style didn’t improve from the first book in the original trilogy. But to be honest I didn’t expect it to improve. 

The characters here are good. I liked the characters much more than I did when I read he first book in the original trilogy because I found Anastasia’s perspective very annoying and Anastasia herself wasn’t better.

I Give This Book 3 / 5
