LONDON -- That didn't take long, did it?
Grey: Fifty Shades of Grey As Told by Christian, the new book from Fifty Shades author E. L. James, has only been out since Thursday morning, but people are already posting their, um, favourite parts on Twitter.
They range from the explicit to the downright odd

#grey "I like my women in skirts. I like them accessible." Those are words. in the book.— Sarah Wendell (@SmartBitches) June 18, 2015
remember the first time you tried to talk dirty and just ended up embarrassing yourself? yeah, that's basically #grey in its entirety.— Nicole Cook (@cookiedohhhh) June 18, 2015
Grey features the same characters from James' original Fifty Shades series, but puts a different spin on things by showing events from the perspective of Christian Grey rather than Anastasia Steele.
It's available to buy now, but be warned: You'll never be able to look at peeled ginger root the same way again.
