Borrowing in Surrey libraries accounted for nearly 20 per cent of all UK loans of the three books last August.

Helyn Clack, Surrey County Council’s cabinet member for community services, said the libraries had stocked up on 200 copies of each of EL James’ Fifty Shades of Grey, Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed as they rocketed up the bestseller list.
Fifty Shades of Grey became the bestselling book in Britain since records began in August last year, surpassing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows with sales of 5.3million copies.
