I just googled 50 Shades of Grey to see what the hype was all about:

The Fifty Shades trilogy was developed from a Twilight fan fiction originally titled Master of the Universe and published episodically on fan-fiction websites under the pen name "Snowqueens Icedragon". The piece featured characters named after Stephenie Meyer's characters in Twilight, Edward Cullen and Bella Swan. After comments concerning the sexual nature of the material, James removed the story from the fan-fiction websites and published it on her own website, FiftyShades.com. Later she rewrote Master of the Universe as an original piece, with the principal characters renamed Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele and removed it from her website prior to publication.[SUP][7][/SUP] Meyer commented on the series, saying "that's really not my genre, not my thing ... Good on her – she's doing well. That's great!"[SUP][8][/SUP]

Sounds dreamy already.

Not really my thing. Great as movies, but I don't like those kinds of books much.

Started reading 'An Introduction to Philosophy' by George Stuart Fullerton, something I came across on Amazon Kindle and thought I'd check it out cos it was free. I hope I finish reading this one for a change.

Just finished reading all of the Sherlock Holmes stories. Great stuff. Kept me hooked for a good two and a half months.

Anyone has a suggestion for a book worth checking out? I am thinking of turning more towards some of the classics as I feel I haven't even scratched the surface in that regard. Yet I have no idea where to start.
