Pervocracy's been doing a sporking. It's sufficiently awful that I can't even read the sporking, but it's probably better than reading the book: http://pervocracy.blogspot.com/

I actually read those a while ago and forgot a lot of what Cliff said and still managed to be surprised by the awfulness. Even with his complaints, I somehow forgot how weirdly negative the book is toward kink, especially for a book that supposedly made kink mainstream.

Oh the series is sooooo negative toward kink, which is one of the things that pisses me off about so many defenses of it. Hello, guys, BDSM isn't portrayed as positive AT ALL in it! The whole idea is that he's into because he's DAMAGED and needs to be cured of his taste for it, and the series ends with him no longer being into it! And these people are like, "you're criticizing the books because you want to shame women for their BDSM fantasies" and I'm like, "NO, THE BOOKS THEMSELVES ARE SHAMING THEM FOR IT. WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU."

That and Ana doesn't even like it. There are a couple brief sentences here and there about how it was so amazing but most of the time she's just miserable. She's not squirming in anticipation when she's looking at the floggers and things, her mind is screaming at her to run away. And then her reaction afterwards tends to be "well I survived, I guess that wasn't so bad" and not wanting to it again and try a bunch of other things too. It's something she has to deal with in order to be with him, not something she actually wants. And the book doesn't even make it seem like it's just her. I did not see a single sentence that implied a sub can get anything out of BDSM other than pleasing the dom.
