Because they were in the news, I bought the first book. I found it unreadable and only made it part way through. The porn was really rather mild. The characters were so predictable, boring and uninteresting that I just didn’t care what they did. Lousy books will make lousy movies.
I was at a B&N and went over to the stand and opened a copy to a random chapter and read a paragraph. It was very pedestrian.
