To leave my copy of 50 shades in the book swap

Our campsite has a book swap, but the only book I have to swap is 50 shades. I've got my eye on a Marion Keyes book, but do you think I should put a health warning on the cover of 50 shades before I leave it in?

I should think somebody will have snapped it up before you've got back to your tent. I doubt a health warning's required, there's been so much publicity lately.

Put it in :)

Yes, do it!

OneLieIn · 10/07/2012 21:55

Put it in just before someone who definitely needs that kind of book comes along

Will probably make someone's holiday Grin

I reckon a few copies will be fueling campfires before the summer is out so why not.

Do it!!

What, a warning to say that it is a massively disappointing insult to the name of erotica?

Vixxen · 10/07/2012 22:33

Agree with seeker people have to be warned about this crime againsed erotic literature.

DH has now said he wants to read it, so I have, a bit unsportingly, taken the Marion Keyes book anyway without putting anything in in return.

I thought it was quite good, although I am no expert on erotic literature, so have nothing to compare it to (a bit like Anastasia?). I thought it was like a triple X rated Bridget Jones 2 The Edge of Reason, what with the flirtatious e-mail banter, a scatty, clumsy, but adorable heroine; and Christian Grey as the Hugh Grant character.

I think Renee Zellwigger would make quite a good screen Anastasia.

Vixeen & Seeker, have you any good recommendations for other books?
