But I'd done a little research before these books became HUGE. They were popular, but when they switched publishing houses, they suddenly became HUGE HUGE HUGE! How does that happen exactly? I mean no disrespect toward the author, but for a story like this, where most women wouldn't read this kind of thing if it weren't for social pressure, I think it means that our publishing and marketing system circles around peer pressure. When something like this is THIS BIG, we automatically think we should read it, whether the content really appeals to us or not. It makes me sad.

Especially since I have not read it. <br /><br />What I meant was that it is going to be the next breakout success, much like Fifty Shades was a breakout success.
