5.0 out of 5 stars Only those who understand irony will get this...
If Fifty Shades of Grey was a glimpse of Upper Class USA, then Fifty Shades of Black and Blue is the Trailer-trash edition. It would be such a shame if the previous reviews put you off this book. It is, in actuality, a very clever parody of the Fifty Shades Trilogy.

Firstly, it CLEARLY states that this is a SAMPLE, not a complete book. So don't buy it if you...

1.0 out of 5 stars Fifty Shades of Black and Blue
Fifty Shades of Black and Blue is unbelievably awful!
Apart from the adult content, this short story is written so badly that I feel it must be aimed at an uneducated but streetwise seven year old. Parody it may be and it does have a little humour but quite how anyone can write so badly is beyond me.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a good parody!, 28 May 2012
This review is from: Fifty Shades of Black and Blue (Kindle Edition)
Having just finished two very funny (laugh-out-loud) books in the "parody" section (Stephfordy Mayo's New Moan: The Twishite Saga & Tony Royden's The Dealer) I was expecting great things from Fifty Shades of Black and Blue, but it was a huge let down. In a nutshell; it was too short, not very well written, very unfunny and a complete waste of money. Best avoided!!

This review is from: Fifty Shades of Black and Blue (Kindle Edition)
After all the hype of fifty shades of grey. I thought give this a go. What a load of rubbish. I would have beat the main character black and blue myself. Has she never heard of womens rights. She was treated to nice things but to be beaten to give this guy a sexual high was ridiculous. This iswhat people have been fighting against for years. I know we are going to have fifty shades of this and that but really this was just a load of nonensense. It says in the preview of the book some woman left her husband after reading this. I don't know if it was because he did these things to her or she wanted that excitement but really what rubbish. I would not recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only those who understand irony will get this..., 13 Jun 2012
This review is from: Fifty Shades of Black and Blue (Kindle Edition)
If Fifty Shades of Grey was a glimpse of Upper Class USA, then Fifty Shades of Black and Blue is the Trailer-trash edition. It would be such a shame if the previous reviews put you off this book. It is, in actuality, a very clever parody of the Fifty Shades Trilogy.

Firstly, it CLEARLY states that this is a SAMPLE, not a complete book. So don't buy it if you are expecting a full novel - that is NOT what this is. It's obvious that the full book is still to be released.

Secondly, in case you do not understand what a parody is (as some reviewers don't appear to) this is supposed to be the same story as Fifty Shades. For those reviewers complaining that this was a copy - that is what a parody is!

Thirdly, if you have no sense of humour and do not understand the concept of irony, then do not buy this book. It is written very tongue-in-cheek, from the first person view of a low class girl. Imagine a cheap, trashy, chav-type describing her ideal world and you'll get the picture. Annabelle Stiletto is very cheap and very trashy and this is Fifty Shades from her viewpoint. In this version, Christian (aka Vinnie) wears cheap, shiny fabrics, shirts open to the navel and way too much wear gel. He covers his furniture is plastic to keep it clean.. He probably wears cheap, nasty aftershave too, but no doubt Annabelle will think it's the classiest scent EVER!

After a while the chav-speak will probably get annoying, so I hope the full book is fairly short, because whilst it is very funny to poke fun at the pretentious original, the joke could wear thin after a while.

Very funny.

This review is from: Fifty Shades of Black and Blue (Kindle Edition)
Very disapointed after reading Fifty Shades of Grey. There was no flowing story line and it seemed to be just sex with a story fitted around the sex, spelling and grammar mistakes.
