Fifty Shades of Grey Matter is not a parody of the runaway bestseller. Rather, it is thoughtful writing laced with humor. Katie Gates tackles a number of topics in this series, and her short essays on those themes are derived from her own experiences as well as from her general observations. Fifty Shades of Grey Matter: This is My Brain on Intuition features five essays that reveal how life can unfold when we honor our capacity for natural cognition. Written in the easy style of her novels—The Somebody Who and Martin Lost and Found—Gates’ Fifty Shades series provides readers with a relaxing opportunity to laugh, feel, and think.

Other titles in this digital series include: Fifty Shades of Grey Matter: This is My Brain on Aging; Fifty Shades of Grey Matter: This is My Brain on Health Issues; Fifty Shades of Grey Matter: This is My Brain on Technology; and Fifty Shades of Grey Matter: This is My Brain on The Job.
