If you’re not too physically tied up later this month, “Fifty Shades of Grey” author E.L. James has a new summer reading offering.

The author took to Instagram on Monday to announce she’s releasing a new version of her literary hit, this time titled “Grey,” and written from Christian Grey’s perspective.

“Hello all. For those of you who have asked, Christian’s POV of #FSOG is published on 18th June for his birthday. It’s called GREY… I hope you enjoy it. #FiftyShades #Grey,” James wrote.

Erotic romance offering “Fifty Shades of Grey” sold more than 90 million copies worldwide by November 2013, and was translated into 52 languages. The critical reception wasn’t anywhere near as positive as the book’s popularity, however.

The Universal and Focus Features film adaptation (pictured above), released Valentine’s Day weekend of this year, also made big bucks, but was generally panned by critics.

Take a look at James’ announcement, with what appears to be the new book’s cover:
