Flowers in the Attic (Audioworks)

Rating:
Summary: Best of the bunch
Review: Flowers in the attic is the best book of all the books ever made by V.C. Andrews. It draws you in from the start. And you feel that your are right in the room with Cathy,Chris and the twins. The setting are very real and I could even see what the attic looked like in my mind. Its engrossing to watch the struggle of love turn to hate and you wonder how would you feel if this was your family. This is a book you'll want to read again and again

Summary: Horrific, with a romantic twist
Review: This is one helluva horror story, with the romantic twist. Let's just say Chris and Cathy, who are brother and sister, got a little...intimate. But, is this based on TRUE FACT?

Summary: The contribution of so gifted a composer
Review: V.C.Andrew's Flowers in the Attic thrusts innocent children who lead story book lives into an existence of beliefs, betrayed loyalties, and heartless cruelty. As I relate to Christopher Young's score reflects the naivete of the children, utilizing an orchestra of strings, woodwinds, percussion and solo soprano. The beauty and innocence of the main motifs, contrasted with the extreme loss of innocence in the film, creates a terrifying musical contradiciton, which is the essence of this overall melancholy score that focusses on the sad existence of the children, rather than the surface dramam. I think this novel is the contribution of so gifted a composer.

Summary: What can I say but it's the best
Review: Flowers in the Attic is one of the best books I have read along with all the others that Andrews has written. A friend of mine let me borrow her copy of it even though I was not a big book reader. I started to read it and I couldn't put it down and now I like to read. I recomment this book to all you people who find it hard to keep intrested in books because I've been there.

Summary: One of the greatest books of all time
Review: This was a great start of the Dollanganger series and I recommend this book to anyone. True, most of the other books repeat the pattern of incest, but still they are wonderful books. I can't see how a mother could leave her children locked in an attic, and especially the sugared donuts (I can't spoil it - read the book and find out what I'm talking about if you don't know). I read the book before I saw the movie (luckily). The movie was horrible, and if I hadn't already read the book, I wouldn't have. Based on the movie, the book would be awful. I guess, based on the book, the movie is awful. But this book is really very good, you can see right into Cathy's world, feel every pain and heart-wrenching moment. I cried when she did and I laughed when she did. I felt I was her while reading the book. I could see every detail of the small room and attic. Over all it was the best!
