No. Really. Fifty Shades of Grey novel found to have traces of herpes



Traces of herpes have been found on a copy of EL James’ popular erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey.

Scientists in Belgium were undertaking an experiment to see how germ-covered library books are when the bestselling series tested positive for the virus.

Herpes was found on one other title among the examined books, Belgian detective writer Pieter Aspe’s Tango.

Plus those corners. And then paper cuts? Oy.
