I, a woman, cannot believe so many women fell for this shit.
What's it about? A 22-year-old college student who has never had a boyfriend (understandable), intercourse (understandable), or an EMAIL ADDRESS (WTF??? This is modern-day America and she supposedly made it through college having never sent an email in her life!), meets a billionaire/philanthropist/concert pianist/helicopter pilot/self-made corporate CEO who's 26 (WTF???). Together, he tries to be her dom, despite the fact that he doesn't listen to her, doesn't take into account what will actually pleasure her (he tells her, doesn't ask her), and just beats her to assuage his own demons.
And they supposedly fall in love. I couldn't make it past book 2, where NOTHING HAPPENS.
It's one of the worst books I have ever read in my life. If people want to read erotic romance, give Maya Banks, Shayla Black, Jaci Burton, or Lorelei James a shot instead. Much better writing and much better character development. This book was so poorly written it was laughably bad.
And women everywhere bought it. I'm embarrassed for my kind...
(Think I'm just being bitter? The Amazon reviews spell it out much better than I just did.)
EDIT: Fixed the link
Yet women have no problem with it.
Once, out of morbid curiosity, I looked at the preview on Amazon. Click the "look inside" part on the left.
I couldn't stop laughing. It's that bad.
So Steam should be arbiters of what is a good game or not? Would people be happy if Amazon stop people publishing shitty barely disguised fan fiction 'asset flips'?
These developers have paid to have their game listed. I think that's perfectly fair to sell them if the consumer knows what they are getting. And if the consumer doesn't have to wade through the shit to see good games. I'm not sure what more you want Steam to do other than give people the ability to return games that are terrible and reduce the likelihood they'll try them in the first place. One person's shitty asset flip is another person's DoTA. One person's low-effort engine reuse is another person's Garry's Mod.
Wow, this is a terrible advice. Usuallyporn is about what pleases a man, not a women!
The best way to learn about pleasing her is reading. Most of the time the ways to please a women need to be understood and not watched (a lot of the fun bits are inside so you can't really see how to stimulate them).
You can learn about cupping, how to make her squirt (there is controversy about what comes out but in the end it is one of the most potent orgasms), the fact that you are small makes it ideal for anal, get toys to help you out (combine penetration with clitoral stimulation and you are golden) and explore other kinks (pegging usually gives the man a lot of insight about how it feels to be penetrated and it improves how they end up doing it).
Edit: regarding your endurance you can get a flesh light or a tenga egg to massage your glans until you learn how to prolong stimuli, practice edging and deny yourself cumming, it will be har in the beginning and it might lead you to cum without you even touching yourself but in the end you will have a huge improvement.
Edit2: I am going to try to put some info together:

I'll ad some stuff later, these are not my faves but they are mind opening
Colourblind edition
50 Shades depicts an outright abusive relationship. If anyone were to behave like that in real life, I would hope they'd get help or get arrested. The unofficial motto of BDSM practitioners is Safe, Sane, and Consensual. 50 Shades fails on at least one of those.
Former porn starlet Sasha Grey wrote The Juliette Society as a reaction to 50 Shades. Both in terms of the presentation of BDSM and also terms of literacy.
Sure thing! These are some of my favourite female fantasy authors, and the books I'd recommend starting with:
Poison Study by Maria V. Snyder
Priestess Of The White by Trudi Canavan
Graceling by Kristin Cashore
Alanna: The First Adventure by Tamora Pierce (She has a series of trilogies with different heroines set in chronological order in the same world. The first trilogy may be my least favourite, but it is the first and it's still pretty good so...)
Spindle's End and Deerskin by Robin McKinley (Can't decide which one to recommend first!)
Daughter of the Empire by Raymond E. Feist and Janny Wurts (Actually written by a man and a woman, but one of my favourite trilogies ever.)
The Clan of the Cave Bear by Jean M. Auel (Not certain this is fantasy but it's incredibly interesting to imagine!)
If you like YA stuff there are several female authors I'd recommend in that category as well, but it may not be your cup of tea.
For what it's worth, read the first line of the second review of the #2 romance book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Bossman-Vi-Keeland-ebook/dp/B01IMFDR9A/ref=zg_bs_158566011_2
And then this one, which is #3: https://www.amazon.com/Prince-Benefits-Billionaire-Royal-Romance-ebook/dp/B01HVG9M3Q/ref=zg_bs_158566011_3
And then the 4th review of this, which is the #6 bestseller: https://www.amazon.com/Perfect-Stroke-Romantic-Comedy-Brothers-ebook/dp/B01I91G7S0/ref=zg_bs_158566011_6
ARCs are the industry norm, they're used by all the top-selling authors, and Amazon accepts them as long as they're honest.
Everything you need.

> I wasn't quite ready and asked him to stop (which he did, immediately), even though the very next night I realized I wanted him to do it and asked him to.
Yes. Both mixed feelings and token resistance to sex are normal parts of human courtship that feminists are twisting around in order to poison heterosexual relations and wage war on men and boys.
I heard you talking on the radio show one time about how offering a little resistance and making a male lover overcome it can, sometimes, be a turn-on for you. I admire your candor. Form what I´ve seen and heard, it is my impression that there are A LOT of women who feel the same way you do.
In fact, I´d say there are 50 Shades of Women who do.
It's a Trilogy.

This abomination began life as a Twilight fanfic.
? Am i smart already?
Anne Rice's version of Sleeping Beauty takes the story to whole new level.
Read Vox by Christina Dalcher. It’s like the Handmaiden 2018, an America in which women are only allowed to speak 100 words a day.
Vox
Fifty Shades of Grey. My wife has been reading it (it's a trilogy). As a result, we've had sex seven out of the last eight nights -- we've been married 19 years and while our sex life hasn't ever been terrible, her horniness level is peaking because of these books.
It's been derisively categorized as Mommy Porn by some, but whatever, she seems to be enjoying it and I have benefited. Too bad she's on the last book in the trilogy already.

Paid reviews are why I don't pay much attention to individual reviews, but the distribution of the ratings. Take Stephenson's Snow Crash, for example. 44 people gave it one star, but more people gave it two, and on up until 444 people gave it five stars. The distribution can be manipulated, too, but it's more difficult to because there are many honest reviewers as well.
A good distribution of ratings doesn't mean I'll like it, but at least it give me
domesome indication. Look at Fifty Shades of Grey. You either love it or hate it; I suspect I'd be in the latter.Edit: typo
Roger sips at his coffee. Steam flows out of the cheap cup into the cold air. By Roger’s reckoning, the cup of joe seems to be the only warm thing for kilometers. Trying to wrap his mind around that fact, he thinks about where he is. He’s standing before a cold building, on a cold world, moving through the cold of space. He shivers, pushing the thought aside. Before taking another sip of coffee he scans the world around him: snow, more snow, ice, and more snow. He shivers again.
The rifle hanging down to his hip jingles slightly as he puts the last hot sip of coffee to his lips; it’s the last thing that he ever does. The round that goes through his chest bursts his heart; Roger is dead before he hits the cold ground. Hot brown coffee mixes with deep red blood, melting the snow around the body.
Luck had nothing to do with the shot. The sniper had taken great care to place the bullet where it needed to go. Also, if luck had been working in the sniper’s favor, the next guard would not have rounded the corner about the time Roger’s body hit the ground.
The guard has enough time to draw up his rifle before the wall next to him is splattered with his own brain matter. No sound is heard from the shot; the only clue that would have helped someone find the shooter would be the gray silencer sticking out from atop a snowdrift more than a few kilometers away.
Ejecting the spent casing onto the ground, Riley stands up from the snow. The rifle collapses and hooks in two places on the mercenary's belt to keep it from making any noise. Being quiet and not getting caught is the name of the game. Before moving on to the building, the sniper bends back down to pick up the bullet casings, making sure that no one will know where the shots had come from. The white-gloved hand reaches down and places the shells in a pouch.
Riley is clad in white, blending in with the snow, completing the requirements for the stealthy operation. The only thing not white is the helmet’s dark visor that reflects the world around it. The armor is made for this environment; not only does it blend in, but it comes with life support that can keep a person warm in much colder weather than what it is right now. However the suit is not perfect; it puts the heavy in ‘heavy’ armor.
The snow makes soft crunching sounds as the infiltrator sinks in it. In the deepest drifts the snow covers the armor plating on the calves. It makes getting to the outpost more than a bit of a pain. But at long last the mercenary makes it.
From a holster, Riley brings to bare a stainless steel handgun. The merc’s grasp is firm on the black plastic grip, making the pistol more an extension of the arm than a separate thing. They hardly make guns like this one anymore. A cylinder holds only six rounds of .357 caliber ammo. The weapon is one of the few things in this day and age that is fully mechanical. The pistol may not have a lot of advantages over a more modern design, but Riley has reasons to like it.
As the merc moves closer to the building, the pistol never wavers from the bodies lying motionless on the ground; if they weren't dead, they would be.
Above is a sample from my first book Riley: Riley: Bad Things For The Right Reasons; that I published this week!

Mhmm. Give me the prices!
I think what you want to read is Ann Rice's "The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty".
Or would that be dwarf cockslapping....... which is completely different.

Fifty Shades of Grey
Fifty Shades Darker

Toni Kief. It’s her Mildred Series. It was a fun and lazy read. I’ll never look at an old woman at a slot machine the same way or a buffet.

This beautiful pillow cover is the cheapest physical thing on my list & This kindle book is the cheapest non-physical item at 99 cents
THIS because i have been waiting forever to read this and i've wanted a kindle for a LONG time! everyone i know has one and i'm so jealous!
Chronicals of Ixia book one.
I really like romantic comedies but it's so difficult to find good ones because they tend to get lost amongst the serious stuff on kindle. But recently I've stumbled on enough that Kindle's gotten better at recommending them to me, which is great.
I'd recommend the following:
The good thing about the Kindle Store is that you can download and read the first few chapters before committing to buying the rest.
This is like an ultra-sexy kdrama in novel form...and they're in San Francisco...and they're not korean -_-. Same feel, though, and very similar humor. For those who don't want to click URL it's called Wallbanger by Alice Clayton.
Go no further than Harlequin books.

I recently saw this one while at work. Lol. A lot of them had really cheesy titles like that that made them scream "rape" fantasy.
I haven't read this myself but I've heard Vox by Christina Dalcher compared to The Handmaid's Tale.
Fun summer reading!
Free until the 5th!

Other than Christopher Moore's "A Dirty Job" which has been mentioned, another book you may be interested in is Dying for a Living by Kory Shrum
The Sleeping Beauty Trilogy by A.N. Roquelaure (Anne Rice in reality) is amazing.

Hm. Maybe I will!
I concur that this series is one million times better than 50 Shades. Rice wrote these while in a depression after losing a child if I recall correctly and there is a lot of raw emotion in these books. They are clever and dark.
The way people get publicity now is crazy!
Speculating this was all an attempt to get the fact that her book is released today. wow.

100 Ton Press just released two new books.
First: Alignment: a love story is the story of Elliott Foley, who has a farm to run, with people who depend on her. One day she backs into an old friend, and finds that it's okay for her to depend on someone, too. Only one problem — all he seems to want is her friendship. Does she want it to be more? Why couldn't it be more?
It's a romance for and about actual grown-ups, and not a Harlequin piece.
$3.99 for Kindle / $12.00 paperback from Amazon.
Second: Most people are stupid. This is self-help for the 21st century. The premise is simple: Most people are stupid. We know this, but don't take advantage of that knowledge (such a surprise!). This is a short-but-astringent guide to understanding and applying this simple rule.
$0.99 for Kindle / $8.00 paperback from Amazon.
I'll start!
For contemp - BB Hamel's One Night Seal
For PNR - My own Dragon's Heat cause I'm a shameless b*tch.

Jana DeLeon’s Miss Fortune Mysteries series would a good summer read. They are very lighthearted books and get even more so as the series goes on. Fun characters.
First book is apparently free on Kindle right now.
Very much so.
If you're a beta, you can't even talk about rape (it's "triggering" to my self-diagnosed PTSD! I once caught a gross creepy guy looking at me, EWWW! I was ALMOST RAPED! Check your privilege you male pig.) In fact, you can't talk at all. Just keep your loser mouth shut and fork over beta bucks.
If you're an alpha though:
And they'll love you all the more for it.

Here is a book I’d like. Used is fine.
Pun intended?
not knowing much of these books i decided to read the amazon reviews. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fifty-Shades-Grey-E-James/dp/0099579936/ref=pd_ts_zgc_b_books_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&pf_rd_p=294486607&pf_rd_s=right-3&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_i=266239&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=1YM0Q3W0HQN6GM39EQSW
i love me some funny book reviews. And one of the reasons it has sold so well is its so cheap.
He rolls his eyes and kisses his cheek. As Sam opens it up he'd see this book title. As he opened up he'd learn what the book is about. Terin smiles as he opens it.
"I hope you love it babe."
If you'll excuse me, I'm off to watch this, read this, and buy this to help forget about that.
Clown Girl by Monica Drake
"Clown Girl lives in Baloneytown, a seedy neighborhood where drugs, balloon animals, and even rubber chickens contribute to the local currency. Against a backdrop of petty crime, she struggles to live her dreams, calling on cultural masters Charlie Chaplin, Kafka, and da Vinci for inspiration. In an effort to support herself and her layabout performance-artist boyfriend, Clown Girl finds herself unwittingly transformed into a "corporate clown," trapping herself in a cycle of meaningless, high-paid gigs that veer dangerously close to prostitution. Monica Drake has created a novel that riffs on the high comedy of early film stars — most notably Chaplin and W. C. Fields — to raise questions of class, gender, economics, and prejudice. Resisting easy classification, this debut novel blends the bizarre, the humorous, and the gritty with stunning skill."
This!
