FIFTY SHADES OF GREY: When college student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating. The unworldly Ana realizes she wants this man, and Grey admits he wants her, too—but on his own terms. When the couple embarks on a daring, passionately physical affair, Ana discovers Christian’s secrets and explores her own desires.
FIFTY SHADES DARKER: Daunted by Christian’s dark secrets and singular tastes, Ana has broken off their relationship to start a new career. But desire for Christian still dominates her every waking thought. They rekindle their searing sensual affair, and while Christian wrestles with his inner demons, Ana is forced to make the most important decision of her life.
FIFTY SHADES FREED: Now, Ana and Christian have it all—love, passion, intimacy, wealth, and a world of possibilities for their future. But Ana knows that loving her Fifty Shades will not be easy, and that being together will pose challenges that neither of them would anticipate. Just when it seems that their strength together will eclipse any obstacle, misfortune, malice, and fate conspire to turn Ana’s deepest fears into reality.
Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. JamesMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
While I enjoyed this book, it wasn't for the bondage shit that happens. I don't find it sexy when a man 'claims' a woman. I'm not down with spanking anyone. Disciplining someone for not acting the exact way you want is messed up. There were moments I want to scream at Ana to just get the hell out. In the words of Christian Grey, he really is fifty shades of fucked up. Sad part is, so is Ana Steele. She was willing to go so far as to basically let this man beat her just so she could have him in his life. I pray women don't read this and think that this is okay.
Overall, I'm not sure what kept my attention in this book. I'm not even sure why I think it's good. I guess I just want to see of Christian Grey can change and he and Ana can have a real relationship sans beatings.

Fifty Shades Darker (Fifty Shades, #2) by E.L. JamesMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I will admit, the first book was a bit much for me. This one was just filled with cute, adorable, Mr. Grey. I loved him opening up and his relationship with Ana growing. There were some pretty steamy parts too. At times I had to put the book down.
I love that Elena go told off. I love even more than Ana stood up to the crazy bitch and even threw her drink in her face.
The last few scenes were great! Christian proposing. It made my heart melt. He totally had it planned out. Way to go Fifty! The scene with Jack makes me look forward to the next book. Which I'm starting right now.

Fifty Shades Freed by E.L. JamesMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I'm not going to make this a big review since I'm short on time. Here are my thoughts on this book:
I'm glad Jack Hyde was in this book. His appearance at the tail end of book two left me wondering and excited. He's really just a complete jealous nut job. I liked the twist when it came to the connection between Jack and Christian.
I loved when Ana stood up to Christian. I think I may have actually shouted 'It's about time!' when she told him off in the bedroom. I wasn't too surprised when they made it known she was pregnant. I feel the author kind of hinted that it would happen.
Kate getting engaged was just plain awesome! She was so worried for nothing.
I couldn't stop reading this book. The part of the story where Ana was trying to get the money to Hyde and save Mia held my attention. I do feel it ended too soon though.
Rays accident made me sad. Poor Ray.
When Christian opened up about everything, I was just thrilled. I think I held my breath the whole time. Amazing. Almost losing Ana opened his eyes. He knew he had to open up to her.
The epilogue and stories at the end were great! I loved seeing what their life was life after the story ended. I especially loved reading about Christians first Christmas and his and Anas first meeting from his point of view.
Overall, I loved this series. The story really came along well. I thought this series would just be about kinky fucker. I loved it.
I would give this series as a whole 4 stars.
I would like to point out that the author used words in the wrong context and sometimes it didn't make sense. Just because you learn a new word doesn't mean you have to use it in every other sentence whether it fits or not.
The writing was a 7/10 for me.

As a whole, the series was good, that is, if you like dirty books with a story.
