I heard about The Mister by E L James, of all places, on the Wendy Williams show... Disclaimer: I DO NOT WATCH THIS SHOW. It was just on one morning and I happened to "see" the first 5 or so minutes of the show and Wendy was talking about it. Now, I did read (and enjoy) the 50-Shades series of books. I wasn't currently reading a book. I was curious about what else she wrote about. So, I asked the Husband to get this book for me from the library. He's become quite the library aficionado. He's my book sherpa.
I started this book on April 28 and finished it on May 13.
Where do I start... I mostly enjoyed the book. However - it was basically another 50 Shades retold in England. There's a rich guy who sleeps around. There's a meek, shy, not rich girl who is the rich guy's maid. He becomes infatuated with her. He starts sleeping with her. He falls in love with her. He has to save her from something bad. And they live happily ever after.
Same plot, different character names. Judging by a lot of reviews on Amazon, others feel the same. I was hoping for more. Disappointing.
