This trilogy is worth reading. I couldn't honestly give this a 5 star rating because the writing is awful and the editing is just as bad. If the eyeglass wearing conscious, the inner goddess, and all that smirking had been removed I'd have given 4.5 just for that. One thing that allowed me to read all 3 books without grinding my teeth is that fairly early into the first book I realized this reads like a teenager girls diary. That made it much less painless for me when I approached it that way.If you can get through the first 2 books, and you must read them or you will be completely lost, I think you will agree this was worth it. Finally you get the rest of the story. Christian's childhood is filled in more as well as what really happened with him and Mrs. Robinson. You find out why a person has targeted Christian and Ana, who the accomplice is, and why they help. I won't go into book description because too many others have covered that very well and I won't give spoilers.I would like to comment on the mommy porn thing. While there is some BDSM and some sex, there really isn't as much as you would think from all the comments. There is actually more talk about the BDSM than the actual practice of it and the sex is mostly vanilla. If those topics bother you and you're still a bit interested, this is a fairly safe book to try.
