About book 50 Shames Of Earl Grey (2012)

This was probably the most assinine book I have ever read/listened to. If it hadn't been the only thing that I had with me in the car I never would've continued. Perhaps it being a parody of a book I haven't yet read didn't help, but I've read parodies of other books I haven't read the original for and thoroughly enjoyed them. I think that to a certain extent the humor should stand on its own, and not be dependant on the reader having read the previous book. Honestly, this has totally put off any desire that I had to read Fifty Shades. I was conflicted about whether to give this book a 3 or a 4 so pretend there is a 3.5 and that I gave it that. This book was really funny. So funny that I breezed through it in one night and then texted my sister to tell her she had to read it (we both hated 50 shades). I really don't have anything bad to say about it, I just know that humor is subjective so I couldn't quite bring myself to promise people that it was a solid 4.
