I really like your review of the review :D I haven't even read the book yet - am still skirting around it 'cause lots of people say it's just crappy writing etc and I think I can read lots of non-crappy writing in my favorite fandom insted - but I'm getting curious and curiouser the more I read about it, so maybe I'll give it a try.
I don't know why it's such a huge success, but someone said to me that for example all the Twilight fans who've read the Twilight story now buy the book like crazy and apparently there are a heck of a lot sparkly vampire fans out there :D And it's been pushed in the media a lot. Hey, on our German yahoo site they even said that baby boom is expected nine months after the book made it under the bestseller... because women now explore their kinky side of sexuality? Snort, snort, snort.
Anyway, really liked your post because I think you're right with what you said - even without having read the book yet :)
