Wow.

I guess the CEOs got a little bump in their lives and wanted to share the wealth.

If anyone is interested in lit crit of 50 Shades, I recommend this book

Talking Sense About Fifth Shades of Gray: Fandom, Feminism, and BDSM

I have no connection to the author - I just have enjoyed Lennard's commentary on genre fiction. (it's rare that anyone takes genre fiction seriously and lovingly at the same time.)

We need to put a stop to this 50 Shades. It's caused a nightmare...

There is now a book titled 50 Shades of Alice in Wonderland published on Amazon. This is just wrong. It needs to stop.
