I actually thought there were some interesting things in this book. AFAIK, people dislike it for a multitude of reasons, but the primary one is that they don't see it as a valid BDSM relationship given Ana's reticence. I think that's an accurate portrayal of the start of someone's BDSM experience, and thought it was interestingly deep (even if unintentional) to watch Ana process her feelings around submission and dominance.

Otherwise: basically just super-trite smut. I will finish the series because I'm a completionist and they're such easy reads.
