guys I think we should give Amanda a break, she needs time to heal her medulla oblongata
That's too bad, I was about to suggest a video about "master of the universe" (lol) part 2 at dunno, 15k likes? :D Edit: *gasp* I called it at the first 2 minutes of the video, believe it or not. *gasp* :D
And soul.
But what does her inner Godesses want??
well 50000 will take some time.
maybe Colonel Sanders can help her.
Rest in peace, Amanda. We'll tell your story and how you sacrificed your sanity for our entertainment
I would’ve just recommend for her to listen to the only good thing that came out of both franchises, the first Twilight’s soundtrack as a cleanser for all this filth
We will sing of her heroic sacrifice for generations! We will teach the songs of her heroism to our children and our children's children!!! *Drama intensifies*
The ballad will become so legendary that bards of the past have sung it.
We will read her story to kids
The really depressing part of this is that a lot of fan fictions are actually pretty good, but then people assume all fan fictions are this bad. Edit: thank you for liking my comment, I didn’t realize so many people agreed
Yeah, it makes all of us who give a care about our fanfics look bad and demotivate us. :(
(but it's also hilarious and I love it, I can't win!)
Oh my god! I read so many fanfics at least a 100 times better than many bestsellers we've had. It actually makes me so mad that they don't get the recognition they deserve.
yeah sadly thats true :( , basically 99% of romantic fanfics (but also pwp ones tbh) are better at dealing with relationships, cosent and boundaries than this mess
Yes!! So much better!!
I wish I lived in the world that it was Auf Wiedersehen Sweetheart that was published instead of 50 Shades
smh
i'm really exhausted with any portrayal of edward that doesn't include him being the BIGGEST virgin
Unus
SAME. The whole attraction for us was that weird, special, obsessive love Edward had. Aint nobody needing to be the 205th woman some man has used up.

I didn’t know that City of Bones was originally a Harry Potter fanfic until this video...
Me either. I'm now sitting in shock, questioning my existence as I realize that one of my fav book franchises was brought about by fanfic.
It's also heavily plagiarised (at least the fanfic was). You're welcome.
I didn't know, but somehow it isn't surprising. Does anyone know who was who?
@@bubblegum1366 I've heard that Clary=Ginny and Jace=Draco. I think that would make Simon=Harry...
@@Sar_bear Yeah I looked it up and realized I had heard of it but wasn't sure where. Then I realized the author was caught up in the Ms. Scribe scandal 🤣🤣🤣
The amount of pain I was in while listening to this actually makes the experience very immersive.
“All the pain I thought I knew, all the thoughts lead back to you, I can’t handle this confusion, I’m unable come and TAKE ME AWAYYYYYY” (Sorry had to make that reference since Amanda is a Canadian that grew up in that era)
Just the same amount of pain I feel seeing that picture of Jonathan.
And deeply satisfying
The profile picture really sells it.
Can confirm, busted a muscle recently
"She describes him as, 'naked except for those soft, ripped jeans.'"
Amanda, almost pleadingly: "That's. Not. Naked."

nothing wrong with bdsm and kink, but 50 shades was abusive. safewords and consent are important
Also there's a big different between being in a dom/sub relationship and a guy that fucking tracks your phone; that's stalking. Also he's emotionally and physically abusive.
Not to mention aftercare.
Thank you! This book does not represent the community
AFTERCAREAFTERCAREAFTERCAREAFTERCAREAFTERCARE
@@WierdArtistMarcell yeah, if they had actually negotiated properly and he provided aftercare, then that "dramatic" spanking probably wouldn't have resulted in a break up. Instead, he would have held her, maybe drawn her a bath, maybe given her her favorite food or a warm drink, whatever comforts her, and then, after she was calm/safe, they would have had a conversation about limits, how she felt, and what they wanted moving forward. It's really not that difficult to respect your partner's consent and post-scene emotional needs
Spoiler: Erika is a terrible writer who knows nothing about BDSM.
Buddies Doing Social Media!
I can't like your comment, it's at 666. She's a straight girl who's in a boring relationship so she writes......this
ME:
“My books are the worst...”
E. L. JAMES:
“Are you challenging me?”
Every time I want to cry over my works, I remember that this was published and feel a little better
Whenever I write a romance story, I look at fifty shades and remember what exactly NOT to do
Ok listen this is the second time I see you under a video like this throwing your own books under the bus. Chin up kiddo, stop the self deprecating.
Give it a shot, if she managed to make millions out of them... You never know.
Crab I feel like a good film comparison would be Michael Bay. His movies are shallow and stupid, but goddamn do they make a ton of money.
You look genuinely broken. I usually avoid anything Twilight/50 Shades related, but I only clicked on this video to thank you for your courageous sacrifice.
A true hero
My abusive ex gf loved this book so much. That say a lot about why I will never read this book or this fanfiction. Thank you for your sacrifice and rest in peace.

I regret to inform the public at large that “holy crow” is, alas, the invention of Stephanie Meyer, not EL James. Though, to be fair to Stephanie, my sources say she only uses “holy crow” four to five times, sooooooo
it's 4 times in twilight aha, so minimal I completely forgot and like, 70+ in this bitch it's WILD
HoLy CrOw
Omfg.
This is just Killing Stalking. Abusive dude taking advantage of the other person who looks like their dead mom. But with Killing Stalking the author made it CLEAR that its not a healthy relationship at ALL, and that its not a love story.
Oh... my... gosh! You confirmed what I thought just now!😱
I have heard Killing Stalking, but DON'T ever planned of reading it, because it's simply not my cup of tea AT ALL. Yet while watching this video, hearing her mind crying out to understand the irrational and disgusting plot that dares to be called "literature", Killing Stalking came into mind and I wondered if that author was inspired by 50 Shades of Grey until you confirmed it.
Oh my god it is
There are actually a lot of people who see killing stalking as romantic and ship the two main characters
Don’t ask me how or why, this made me definitely lose faith in humanity
Killing Stalking and Fifty Shades are nothing alike. The fact that Sangwoo sees his "ideal prey" in women who look like his mother is actually a kind of common trait for serial killers whose victim type often shares similarities of some kind with the person who triggered their trauma - if they have one, or tend to recreate the situation that made them "lose it" in a way that makes them feel dominant over it.
Besides, Bum's "love" is clearly depicted as an obsession that defies all logics and there is no BDSM or bullshit like 'relationship rules' going on between them (the only 'rule' comes from the fact that Sangwoo surely doesn't want to end up in jail, and Bum doesn't want that either). I'm pretty sure Killing Stalking author wasn't inspired by 50 Shades of Gray at all, also because one of Killing Stalking themes (which is deeply tied to how the characters look and act) is a critique of certain aspects of the South Korean society.
Whereas Fifty Shades is simply a badly written smutty fic focusing an unintentionally abusive relationship that is portrayed as desirable.
@@blooddragon805 Yeahh, and its rlly gross. I fr dont understand how ppl see their relationship as anything other than abusive and disgusting
"Holy Crow" is actually something Bella says in the Twilight books, so that one's on Meyer, not James.
Holy crow that’s amazing
I had a friend who used this, ahem, expletive phrase, but he used similarly corny lines like "Gosh willikers" so I'm pretty sure he was being ironic
I was good friends with a horse girl in highschool who would say "Holy Crow" and EVERYONE poke fun at her for it. Once Twilight came out she never let us live it down. It was Holy Crow all the time.
Stephenie Meyer's Mormonism jumped out with that "curse word"
How many times did Bella say it vs the omfg so many times el did?
My favorite part is how many different names you called them
This is how I stay sane

It's funny how E L James uses fancy words to sound intelligent but clearly doesn't know the meaning of the term "subconscious".
You know how you can tell when someone is a bad writer? When they just throw in big words for no reason.
That's literally the first thing we learn in writing class. Don't use big words unless in very specific situations, i.e. a linguist character investigating big words or something. They're just really specific.
Yeah. Unless you know what they mean don't put them in just to make a character seem intelligent.
It reminds me of this Bad Luck Brian meme where he claims “I use big words I don’t know sometimes to make myself feel more photosynthesis”.
@@jeanyeap4229 14 year old me that used gratuitous vocab words is quaking.

_"Twilight 50 Shades fanfiction is not True Cinema"_
-Martin Scorsese (2020)
“Twilight 50 Shades fanfiction is the pinnacle of cinema, as someone that made a piece of fanfiction that made over a billion dollars, I should know”
-Rian Johnson
Bring Back KP, Animated Obviously /CrisisOnFire1977 Rian Johnson had thoughtful ideas for how to progress the Star Wars universe, unlike JJ “let’s bring back Palpatine because I can only copy the originals” Abrams. Sorry his take wasn’t a self insert where Luke kicks ass.
@Megan McClung Points For Rian for being original I guess, but his ideas for the story were much worse than any of J.J’s blatant nostalgia pandering/damage control could ever be, J.J would never have killed Snoke that early
Bring Back KP, Animated Obviously /CrisisOnFire1977 I really liked what Rian came up with regarding the Jedi and the force bond. Killing Snoke was only a poor decision because JJ didn’t know what to do after that. I thought he would have been more creative with where he took the story instead of putting in a new dominant bad guy. All of the directors should have worked together instead of passing on the baton with no overarching story plans.
@Megan McClung I completely agree with the last part, the sequel trilogy wouldn’t have been such a clusterfuck if they had just stuck with one director
Ha ha JK guys I said FIFTEE thousand likes, not fifteen.
EDIT: OKAY! It hit 50k and I JUST managed to track the fanfiction down so still deciding when to cover it considering we have Freed right around the corner

Hey, I just wanted to put this out there, the "contract" he wants her to sign? The one that says stuff like "The Dominant may use the Submissive's body at any time" and "The Submissive is the property of the Dominant"? Yeah, I think that's a standard Master/slave contract. Really hardcore people in the BDSM lifestyle may enter into Master/slave relationships, where it says the Master (Dominant) has all the control over the slave (submissive). But all that stuff in there is just for show and to perpetuate the roleplay. They establish the hard limits before the relationship begins, and the slave still has a safe word if things get out of hand. What I'm saying is, the slave is still an autonomous human being with rights, and the Master respects their wishes even though they're in such a hardcore relationship.
But notice how I keep saying _hardcore_ . M/s relationships aren't for everyone, they are up there in kink. It takes an experienced Dom and an experienced sub to make a M/s relationship work, instead of verging into abuse territory. To present an inexperienced person with a contract like that is like making someone who's built model airplanes as a hobby fly a jet. They don't have the experience to know what to do or how to navigate, so doing that would be irresponsible beyond belief.
Also, all M/s contracts are marked M/s. I'm pretty sure EL James copied that contract off a website, changed M/s to Dominant and Submissive, and pasted it into her fanfiction. Which is extremely disingenuous.
You can't sign yourself into slavery, that's not how contracts work. I could sign that right now and it would mean nothing
@@skeetsmcgrew3282 Exactly, it's just a roleplay. It has no legal binding. It's just to get the participants in the mood. As well as to outline the hard limits and what the relationship would entail.
Christian is treating these types of contacts like they ARE legally binding, which they aren't.
"E.L. James" clearly has a bit of a fetish related to what is, in the Scene, a rather fringe activity... Total Power Exchange. Also, sometimes, called 24/7. I've been in the Scene a LONG time, been part of the perveratti for a spell, and while I've been a willing participant in exploring the A to Z of sex, TPE always stuck me as an off note. Although, while I'm a skilled top, I'm kinda shite as a Dom. I tend to insist my subs call me "My Tallest" if they insist on using a title
@@colinmacaoidh9583 Is that an Invader Zim reference? If so 10 points to you
@anna I feel like she wouldn't be creative enough to come up with the "contract" but I hadn't considered she might have just taken it off the internet, though I can see how she would. 24/7 is a hardcore hardcore, and I've never personally met anyone in the scene who goes all out with 24/7. I'm a little newer to the scene though, given my age, but it makes me wonder where she got the contract from. Cuz I've seen some really shady shit on the internet with faux doms
@@JadePlayer2 It's absolutely an Invader Zim reference, I just can't take the roleplaying all that seriously. And ABSOLUTELY, the infosphere is loaded with sketchy things and people spreading bad data about the Scene
"Never trust a man who can dance"
DON'T DO NAPOLEON DYNAMITE LIKE THAT
Christian is like:
"I can dance if I want to, I can leave my kinks behind
Cause you don't sign and if you don't sign
Well you're no sub of mine"
So all ways trust yusei from yugioh 5Ds

Well I'm 50 Shades of uncomfortable....your commitment is admirable Amanda.
Honestly the medulla oblongata thing sounds pretty loyal to Twilight. That's what made me give up halfway through reading Twilight--it made me so mad how Stephanie Meyer thinks "smart people" talk and act. Because liking Jane Austen and listening to Claire de Lune (honestly, of all classical pieces) and understanding the difference between telophase and anaphase at 17 *does not make you special.* It just makes it clearer how not at all classically-inclined the author is and demeans those of us who are actually are by associating us with the piece of soggy bread that is Bella Swan.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
It got us the film of _Austenland_, though, so I don't complain.
James is one of those authors who thinks that if they look up words they don't understand in a thesaurus then put it in their books it somehow makes them smart.
At the end of the day, Twilight is a teenage girl story. Nobody outside of that demographic should give as much of a shit about it as people do.
Yes, it's cringe and Bella is just a space-holder for the reader, but so what?
Let kids have their frivolous bad entertainment.
The values Twilight offers are problematic to be sure, but it is a symptom of the wider issue in society, not its cause.
@@BlueGangsta1958 I am a teenage girl. That's why Bella made me so mad. But I do see your point.
You must mean "Clair De Lune" by Debussy, right? Cause Au Clair De La Lune is a French nursery rhyme 😉 (I mean, maybe knowing nursery rhymes make you sound smart, idk) (also I just realized that the sexual undertones of the rhyme could be the start of another fanfiction of hers who knows there are candles involved in BDSM right)
There's a common saying in writing-forums:
He wanted a bite of his sandwich, but shoved a thesaurus down his throat by accident instead"

I find it quite interesting that during your rant about the abysmal portrayal of bdsm, you neglected to mention the writing itself. The butchering of the English language was an assault in itself. I had started reading this as a fanfiction but could not force myself to continue. It hurt me, I felt physical pain at the grammar alone. James should have a lifetime ban of anything used to string more than two words together!
I read two pages out of 50 shades and was like, wow this is embarrassing to read, like I would honestly rather catch someone with weird hentai than touching themselves to this monstrosity
My question is... Did this person have an editor? What about beta readers? Because they would catch anything that makes the story so horrid

@@casual_insanity5055 Masticated just means "chewed-up", if that's what you're confused about. If you're confused about nothing, I'm sorry about assuming.

You feeling ok? Feel like we need to check.
Reminds of friends when Joey uses a thesaurus for every word when writing a letter. This is exactly what she did 😂
What pisses me off about Stephanie Meyer and E.L. James is that they make their characters use highfalutin words that is soooooooo out of place. Like, no teenager or people in their early 20's ever say those words out loud or even think it in their internal monologue. I get that Meyer tried to build her character on "born in the wrong century" to match with Edward but holy shit she just keeps making her sound pretentious and less realistic.
Eh I use big words a lot. So it's understandable that a socially awkward kid with an access to loads of books might actually be using big words
to clarify: this is not a flex, i suck at human communication, words are hard, its just sometimes i sound like an exposition character and other times like unga bunga the second

You've done more than enough. This video is probably a form of self harm, and we are concerned. Pls.
You saying “I’m fine” while reading this unholy schlock reminds me of that “they ask you how are you.” meme
I did know that fact, being a huge twilight fan. But never actually read the fanfiction which turned into 50 shades. Struggled enough trying to read the first few pages of the book. Honestly, I would hate to see the fanfiction considering the book was poorly written.
The thing that bugs me the most about this person is the following:
She ripped off someone else's idea/s completely, didn't suffer the consequences because Mayer didn't want to sue, and she could've.
On the other hand, Mitchel is not shy about threatening or suing anybody who even thinks about publishing anything that resembles 'her' books.
So yes, Mitchel is an unredeemable, uncreative, hypocritical, ignorant person.
For more on the matter feel free to watch the video 'Lukewarm defense of 50 shades', it is enlightening.
The video is by Folding Ideas. Strongly recommended.
@@squirrel_killer- such a good video
tbf the end product is nothing like Twilight. If Meyer actually went to court, I don't believe she could have won.
Even the original fanfiction only used the names of twilight characters. Not the setting, their personalities, the story, the lore, or basically anything. 50 shades and Twilight do not share more similarities to each other than any other romance novel in the genre.
In the fanfiction world, it doesn't quite work the same. As the commenter above said, Twilight and 50 shades are nothing alike so Meyer wouldn't have been able to do much about it. That's how fanfiction works. If you change enough about the characters and world, you can legally publish it because it's different enough to not be copyrighted. I wouldn't really say she ripped off someone else's idea, considering 50 shades is NOTHING like Twilight. She just wanted to use someone else's names. As for the abuse and toxicity in 50 shades, that's a whole other issue that needs to be dealt with.
@@LxstinNeverland Well, I agree.
But you can't deny she basically ripped Meyer's idea of writing the same story from the other main character's POV.
Wonder if she's ever gonna write the trilogy but gender reversed.
Seeing how James is everything but creative.
During that part of the fanfiction where Bella was on her period I forgot Edward wasn't a vampire. So I thought he was just going to drink her blood as if she was a Capri Sun

After read 50 SoG "fan version": I want to die
I remember reading FSOG and thinking; "Wow. There are so many similarities between this and Twilight" and that was *before* I knew that it started off as Twilight fanfiction. The similarities were everywhere, from the description of what the characters looked like ie: Ana/Bella; slight, pale, long dark hair(the only difference was is the eyes) and Christian/Edward; tall, handsome, kind of copper to auburn hair(again, eyes) to the make up of Edwards/Christian's family ie: the male parent whose name starts with a "C". The doctor parent who *saved* him, an older *brother* who is very loud and outgoing(Emmett/Elliott). A younger *sister* who is described as being petite with short black hair and is "difficult to rein in". Also there's the similarities between Ana's family and Bella's. They are really everywhere. But knowing that FSOG originally started out as Twilight fanfiction just clarified things so much for me. Sorry if this came across as way too much detail, these are just some similarities that I noticed right off the bat, that not a lot of people seem to mention, and I wanted a chance to talk about them. 🙂
This was my exact first thought on reading the first few chapters. I was like, sh**, it was a fanfic?
“SO THEY CAN GET... GROOMED.”
Holy *shit.*
There’s some goopy stuff pouring out of my ears after listening to this fanfiction is that normal?

A lot of this Sounds like EL Has a TON of repression issues & a grooming kink
Yep, sure sounds like it.
@Sabrina Owens & Apparently The author of the source book of "365 days" is worse.. Sigh
@Sabrina Owens Just interested- I've read that before, about her male characters being self-inserts, & I wondered how you can tell? I can if it's the female character, but I don't think I could with a male character (& I'm not reading 50 shades of abuse to test this theory!) And she sounds stupid as well as vile- I dunno what's more embarrassing, lacking the insight to *realise* it's a self-insert, or realising but still actually *publishing* it.
@@beth7935 in Folding Ideas' trilogy of videos on the movies, he discusses at one point the backstage drama EL James caused on the first movie, like yelling at the director for an hour in front of cast and crew over a line of dialogue, and then replaced both said director and I think the head writer or something with a more obedient director and her own husband for the two sequels. That and some of her tweets paint her as a rather petty and controlling person, and he used those to draw parallels between her and her male leads.
@@bluslvrwolf2166 Thanks! Yuck, what an unpleasant woman.
I'm not a bodice-ripper romance book reader but there's *got* to be better erotic books out there for middleaged women to read
For example - Norwegian. I've tried.
Basically any fanfiction other than this or My Immortal. Literally *everything* is better than this
@@BooksandBuns My Immortal is art
@@elafimilo8199 My Immortal belongs in the Louvre
@@threeoutoften8564 no it belongs in the Whitehouse toilet
“I can feel his hndhdnnf against my belly”😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀
That's my favourite part 🤣
This gave me anxiety, I'm not kidding.
So when's part 2?
I'm sorry for what we've done to you 😳. Hope u recover soon
Jeanette Dirié perhaps we should start a GoFundMe page for Amanda’s therapy?
@@aucarter yep. But she gives us some mixed messages, she asked for likes to read the next part, I almost didn't want to like it for her sanity.
Ps. There are adds on the vid now?
The use of uncommon words sounds like my middle school self trying to sound smarter and more "professional".
We must honor you after this great sacrifice
"Otherwise you'll end up alone... with cats and classic novels (sic)" -- Yeah, uhm, that sounds like the MUCH better option to me.
I’m going to be honest, as a fan of Twilight and fellow writer, I would sometimes look for genuinely good fanfiction of the novel. Though I can see why many would stray away from it due to fanfics like Fifty Shades of Grey giving fanfics a bad rep
It even hurts the repute of fic in other fandoms. It's normal folk's first point of reference.
9:18 Bellastasia sounds like a cool name 😃
Better than fucking “Renesme” 😂
Imma write that down XD
That's like... the worst takeaway from this video. :'DD
Bella naming her second child lmao
@@marisophi.01 lol me too. The name sounds pretty nice
YEEeeS im so excited! Ive been waiting for this trainwreck
I'm almost 30 and wear pigtails at work. My hair's too short to put in a high ponytail, and a low ponytail interferes with my hardhat. Not defending 50 Shades or anything, but some adult women do wear pigtails...
I wear pigtails at night or when I'm doing something where I don't want to deal with my hair. I'm 32
I'm 35 and wear sometimes a headband with stars and glitter on it. when I out. in the public. and no one cares 😂
I will randomly wear pigtails sometimes, no real reason. I just like my hair like that sometimes.
I wonder how Amanda will feel if she reads that one infamous Harry Potter fanfiction...
*looks at My Immortal*
Hey now - _My Immortal_ is *funny* bad
@@Strannik01 You’re not wrong. At least My Immortal has entertainment value lol
There are genuinely good fan fiction writers out there. People like E.L give them a bad reputation, sadly.
There's a good video by Jill Bearup recommending a slew of good fanfics (several years old now, admittedly). We could do with more of those for balance, given how much attention Shades and its ilk get.
"Because it's written, 'I can feel his....m..eh...heh....' " I'm dying XDDDD
Sameee😂
Pro Tip; Watch at x2 speed to experience Amanda's breakdown to the fullest.
I tried this and oh my god 😂😂😂😂
(Tears Don’t Fall plays in the background) LET’S GOOOOOOOO!
I remember when I was still on livejournal there was this huge drama with SnowQueensIceDragon and other Twilight fic writers (angstgoddess003) because she’s awful and also they thought she was an idiot for trying to get it published...unfortunately two years later everyone had to eat their words
The “blazeofglory” LJ has the whole story. It’s fascinating. I still can’t believe we live in the universe where this actually become successfully. Wow.
Sadly, angstgoddess003 is gone. Journal deleted and purged. She had some good stories from what I remember...
@@victoriashevlin8587 I'm still around, just not participating in Twilight anymore. I'm in the publishing industry though! I've owned a book cover design business for the last 8 years, and I've just started publishing a little. I don't know what happened to my LJ. I remember logging on one day just for shits and gigs and my account didn't exist. Bummer to lose so many great discussions and comments :( Thanks so much for your kind words, though! Trippy to see myself mentioned in a RUclips comments section!
"Inner Goddess", you keep using that term. I do not think it means what you think it means.
I usually watch your videos twice in a row, since I love listening to you, but this one... this was goddamn painful. And yet-- you went through all this, it's only right-
Bless you
I think the “holy crow” thing is actually from real twilight, so that may be why it was in the fanfic but not the published, could be mistaken though.
Nah you’re right. Bella says that when Edward is driving her home from Port Angeles, but Idk if she says that more than once.
20:18 Big gay energy here and I am all for it, Dakota is, indeed, beautiful AF
Is Amanda the big gay? Also seconded she is very beautiful and deserves better than to be forever tied to this movie
"I'm done. I can't"
*36k likes*
"Oh, but you will..."
Amanda we hit 50K weres part2
7:13 At least with Dexter his Dark Passenger is how he describes his urge to kill. The way Ana talks about her "inner goddess"you'd think there was somebody else inside her reacting whenever Grey turns her on.
Also it actually made sense. A goddess would most certainly not be a sub, like why choose such a weird word other than to make it seem ok?
I have read a lot of fanfiction and some of those are truly well done and well written. I tried once to read what you read and by the second page I wanted to gouge my eyes out. Needless to say, I never read more than those two pages. Damn, you don’t look fine. Somebody call that girl.
I'm conflicted now. I want to leave a like on the the video to support Amanda but I worry about her sanity if the video hits 15k likes and make her read the next part of the fanfiction
I would be able to forgive all of that bs if they explicitly said that they had a safe word or something, so all of that would technically be consensual and just a role play
But they don’t say that so this just reads as an abusive, toxic, obsessive relationship with kinda kinky sex but written by someone who doesn’t know how bdsm works
"That's NOT *NAKED* " 😭😂
I read all the books for the first time when quarantined started (Including the ones from Greys Perspective),and I feel your pain... I thought the book was gonna be decent since they made a movie...and BOY was i wrong...RIP. You're strong Amanda..never forget that!
Amanda, I'm honestly really sorry you had to go through that. But damn I love it when you rant
as AO3 would tag it: shameless p0rn w/o plot, huh
I remember reading this thing way back in my Twilight phase. Many years later, I heard about the hot new craze called 50 Shades, picked up the first book, and had an immediate flashback. I’m honestly still surprised how little they changed other than the names.
Me, slumped on the sofa, shovelling half-melted chocolate into my mouth, eyes glazed over, staring listlessly at the TV: “I’m fuelling my inner Goddess-”
Inner Goddess goals 👌
