Summary: V.C. Andrews Best Work Ever
Review: Flowers in the Attic is the most controversial and classic novel of V.C. Andrews career. It explores how far a young, widowed mother will go in order to inherit the millions left to her by her estranged father. Her children are all locked in one room with only an adjoining attic to play. The days become years and while the oldest son still believes whole heartedly that their mother will provide, the eldest daughter begins to lose faith. This book is not for the offended or easily upset it explores incest and child abuse and the dark side of human anture. But if you are game this is one amazing book.

Summary: A haunting book
Review: This is her best work in my opinion, I love all of her books but this one haunts me still! I felt like I was in the attic with those poor children, feeling the pain that they went through. V.C Andrews has a way of bringing charactors to life!

Summary: Got my emotions going
Review: This is a really good book. I was about 12 or 13 when I first read it, and to be honest, it sickened me. I was crying in the middle of this book at how a mother and grandmother could do this to children. I am 16 now and about to read it again. It is a very good, well written story about 4 kids being locked in the attic with only themselves to keep each other sane. I especially found the incest part of the book disgusting, but it was there to add to what the kids felt and what they were going through. If you want an emotional rollar coaster story, this is definately for you!

Summary: Hard to Put Down!
Review: This book is one of my absolute favorites. When I read it for the first time, I couldn't put it down. Now I am totally hooked on V.C. Andrews's books. This book is about four children who are locked up in a attic for almost 4 years. It is a great read and I also recommend the rest of the books in this series. I have read and loved them all!

Summary: I LOVED IT!
Review: Flowers in the Attic is the best book ever. The twisted plot changed frequenly keeping your hands glued to the pages. Wow. The characters are believable and bounce off each other extremely well. I, however, got too attached and ended up crying during the last 4 chapters constantly. My mom read it long ago and I picked it up and never put it down. I strongly suggest it for any reader over the age of 13. Some lines are very innappropreate for younger readers.

Summary: Human Behavior
Review: I think that my review of the book is different from the others because it was a book I read after many of the Ghostwriter's. Stylistically, it's not hat great. Chris does not speak like a boy his age, and I understand he's brilliant but come on. The timing and pace was a little rough too. But if you want think and be influenced by things you wouln't have dreamed of wondering about read this. Batrayal, incest, the book has it all. It's not really a novel as much as it a diary of one's emotions, but it's still enjoyable. Read the next books tow atch Cathy evolve.

Summary: Attic Mice
Review: I first read this novel when I was ten years old, right after the movie came out. I read Garden of Shadows, then Flowers In the Attic. This is a wonderful, but horrific tale of four children confined in an attic by their greedy mother and evil grandmother. I am THERE with them, during the entire book, feeling their misery, their hunger, their pain. A wonderful book that I continue to come back to. The best V.C. Andrews novel that was ever written.

Summary: Hypnotic
Review: I first read this book when I was fourteen years old, and six years later it is still my all-time favorite book. It delves into the wickedness in people's hearts, and is utterly shocking. I would recommend this to anyone that can read!
