Not for people who appreciate literature or the art of storytelling
Really, really, really, really terrible writing. You know how in filmmaking, you have text and then you have texture, and the two together is what makes a really great movie? Well those categories apply well to storytelling as well, and this book is all text. I could see how these books' basic building blocks could make for a compelling story. Unfortunately, the execution falls completely flat. The texture is completely nonexistent. If you appreciate good writing at all, DO NOT READ THIS BOOK. It is shocking to me that so many people like these books so much. Seriousl,y do yourself a favor: if you like good books, don't read this one. However, if you like sex scenes interspersed among a poorly told story, by all means go right ahead, you will love this.
