Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James - Of course I read it. And guess what, I've read it before. Oh...not this exact book, but many like it, because this is what women read in the 1980s and it was called the romance novel. Fabio was on the cover, and in between the pages was an innocent yet sassy young girl and the older well built hunk who beguiles and deflowers her. They constantly misunderstand each other and each others' motives and the formulaic story advances. I must say that this modern take with the 9 1/2 Weeks theme is a fun read, and just good enough that I've reserved the next book in the trilogy. I mean after all, I have to find out what happens, right? By the way, this is not a book to be taken seriously. Either enjoy it or put it down, but please don't tell me it's serious. All right then! On to Fifty Shades Darker.
Her Heart On Her Sleeve: I live in a suburb north of Chicago, and I read, bead, make jewelry, sew, watch TV and movies, crochet, craft, decorate, go to house and garage sales, walk and go on beach walks, listen to music, take pictures, cook and bake, read, and write about all of it on herheartonhersleeve. I have a companion blog called Jewlery by Dianne Sophia at diannesophia.blogspot.com where I write exclusively about my jewelry.
Jewelry By Dianne Sophia: I have been collecting vintage jewelry since I was a girl growing up in Detroit, and have been designing and making jewelry for 15 years. I love to work with pearls and crystals, semi-precious stones, Sterling Silver and Gold, along with vintage beads and materials. I delight in combining shape, pattern and color in new ways. I'm inspired and influenced by my travels and experiences as a reader, writer, photographer and student of life. My blog herheartonhersleeve.blogspot.com chronicles my life in art and popular culture.
