E-books are da bomb

Especially, on my iPhone. Have I mentioned that already? My eldest dotty has a Kindle Fire .. That is actually the perfect size for reading an e-book but my iPhone is always with me so it makes sense to read off it.

I finished the entire Fifty Shades trilogy on my iPhone.

I don't get what the big fuss is about .. Aside from the guy being into BDSM and having a truckload of psychological issues, it's just like any other romance novel. Really. And come on, how many times can you read a sex scene ?? How many ??! And there is plenty of that in the books, believe me. I dunno how they are gonna make the books into a movie. What kind of rating would it get? Lol.

Funny thing is, Christian Grey .. Has eerie similarities to The Hubby. And NOT the BDSM part (Hahahah!) .. And also not the psychological issues (thank God) And not the billionaire part either (DAMMIT to hell) ..

But I understand his need for control over Ana. I was reading the book and going .. "Oh, no .. He won't like that" and I turn the page and voila, I am right.

Huh.

It has taken The Hubby 15 years of marriage to get to where we are today. And I still cannot buy a chest of drawers without him okay-ing it or meet a male friend .. Even if its just my insurance agent. Lol. Lets not even talk about going on holiday without him. The man threw a fit when I brought the girls to MBS for an overnight stay when he was out of the country. Lol.

He's plain lucky I love him so much to accede to his possessiveness and manic control freaked-ness. Most times. I still buy pieces of furniture now and then without him okaying it. Lol. From Ikea ok?! Not some expensive piece.

So yes, in case you're wondering, I have no male friends. Well, just that one and he's my insurance agent (lol) and he's an old friend so he understands The Hubby .. I do have male friends on Facebook, but I don't meet up w them or chat w them at all. Cos I know he doesn't like it.

My eldest dotty is reading The Hunger Games trilogy on her Kindle. Must ask her how that is going.

So e-books .. If you haven't gotten into them, start now! Cheaper than actual books and u save space storing them. Plus, u can take it everywhere with you. Especially, on your iPhone. Really convenient.
