The Diary Of A Submissive

Before you get excited, todays blog post isn't about me. I'm not talking about my diary and i'm not a submissive ;) I'm a proper book geek so I thought i'd review my latest read. The Diary Of A Submissive is journalist, Sophie Morgans memoir on what it is to be a submissive. It's a real life Fifty Shades of Grey. First published in August 2012 hot on the trail of so called mum porn I picked this up in Asda yesterday as I wanted to read something over the weekend. Well I started reading at 1pm and had finished by 9pm. If I hadn't of needed to stop for toilet breaks, general mum duties I would of easily finished it even quicker! It's definitely an addictive read. In comparison to Fifty Shades of Grey it is written a million times better ( although the grammar police in me picked up on a couple of mistakes ;) ) There was none of that awful repetitive language that was seen in Fifty thankfully and no cringy phrases. Was it sexy? Yes I think it was, nearly every page had a sexy tale but it didn't have the shock factor. I wasn't shocked by anything that was written and I don 't feel it's overly filthy which in all honesty was what I was looking for *blush* It was all rather tame. Just your usual spanking, hair pulling and being tied up. Hardly hugely kinky and nothing I haven't read before. Unfortunately the ending definitely let the author down. I felt the last few chapters were rushed and a big cliche. The sub gets her happy ever after with her dom. Surprise, surprise! I did however still really enjoy this. It kept me entertained for a few hours and i'm really interested to see if Sophie Morgan does a follow up in a year or so. I'm genuinely interested to see if the sub/dom relationship can be sustained over a long period within a normal day to day relationship.
