Transplanting a Seattleite

Part of the funny with the drunk thing is that Ana is at a bar celebrating done-with-senior-finals with her roommate and some friends. One of the friends, Jose, follows her out to the sidewalk and makes an unwanted move on her, then doesn't really take no for an answer. It would have turned out just fine, because Ana throws up a couple minutes later, but Christian shows up in the interim and moves Jose along. He then spends portions of the book being jealous and/or controlly-for-safety-reasons about Jose because of what he did, even tho Jose apologizes and seems to behave better thereafter.

Christian does have a point that what Jose did was really wrong, and it's an indication of Ana's personality that she conceals what Jose did from her roommate and bff Kate, just like she conceals what she is doing with Christian.

I feel terrible justifying this book, because it is so appalling in so many ways, but I also feel like it has been wildly unappreciated for its Fabulousness as a piece of fanfic/homage/satire on romance subgenres. It is _relentless_ in its pastichtasticness.
