According to Grey, Christian is completely focused on work and he is determined to maintain his dominant persona. It is fascinating to read the story with fresh eyes too, having glimpsed Christian’s traumatic childhood and gained an understanding of his motivations.

la novela se me hizo ETERNA, me tardé horrores en leerla y al final ya sólo estaba leyendo por acabar, no porque realmente me interesara. Finally getting to read Christian’s point of view and what he experienced when those elevator doors closed as well as the five subsequent days makes this book an essential read for fans.Prefiero mil veces la trilogía original con la inaguantable diosa interior de Ana, que un sólo capítulo con este mendrugo. It got me to start reading more romance, and with that, I joined groups on goodreads and found so many indie books I may have never discovered and made many friends I’m sure I would have never crossed paths with otherwise. By the time Miss Steele bumbles through the interview, though, he is entirely lost to her unassuming beauty and klutzy charm. E L James revisits the world of Fifty Shades with a deeper and darker take on the love story that has enthralled millions of readers around the globe.

Fan reception for Grey has been positive and the book sold over 1 million copies in its first week of release. Hubiera preferido quedarme con la imagen que Anastasia tiene de él (hombre maduro, sexy, serio), porque pff, Christian Grey es un chiste. Christian Grey exercises control in all things; his world is neat, disciplined, and utterly empty—until the day that Anastasia Steele falls into his office, in a tangle of shapely limbs and tumbling brown hair. Conchita, who seems to know what she is doing, goes down on her hands and knees and manages to coax him out, using a saucer of milk and an old copy of Hustler. I did find myself slightly frustrated at Christian though at one point but that was down to his attitude about Anna and Mrs Robinson.The theft, which occurred on 8 June, [11] has been compared to the 2008 leak of Stephenie Meyer's Midnight Sun, a then-unreleased companion novel that retells the events of Twilight from the perspective of Edward Cullen. This is the first book in the series that tells the Fifty Shades of Grey story from the male point of view: this is Christian Grey’s story. I can be mistaken, but I always thought he was this super domineering alpha who is in control (or aspires to be).

Unlike any woman he has known before, shy, unworldly Ana seems to see right through him - past the business prodigy and the penthouse lifestyle to Christian’s cold, wounded heart.
