Flowers In The Attic

Rating:
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!

Review: this book is only the start to a suspensful, captivating tale of 4 young children and what becomes of thier lives when they are put in the attic "temporarily" from thier mother....this tale is well written. the storyline is about betrayal, trust, wanting, and needing...at the same time sad and happy. the books that follow this series is terrific and keeps you reading. this is one of the best series i have ever read.

Summary: Flowers in the Attic
Review: This novel is an action packed book. It keeps you on the edge of your seat because you can never tell what will happen next. The book starts off with a little family where the father is gone all week, due to work, but is home on weekends. One weekend the father did not show up and there was a surprise birthday party for him. Everybody heard a car pull up and thought it was him. Instead, it was a police officer telling everybody that their father died in a car accident. So,the family had to move to their grandmother's house because they had no more money. Their grandmother ended up being evil and locked all the children in an an attic upstairs. Throughout the story, the children try to escape. Their mother visits them once a month and their grandmother would starve them. The littlest boy Cory died and the gramdmother buried him out back and told the kids that he died from Pneumonmia. The grand mother said nothing but lies. I dont want to reveal the end because it would be better for you to pick up the book and find out for youself. I think you should read this novel because the end is unexpected. The reason i like the story is bacause i am always ready for novels that have spooky parts. If I could , I would rate this book six stars but i can only give it five

Summary: A horrific tale of love, horror and tears.
Review: A truly amazing book and my very favorite of all time! I was 14 when I first read Flowers in the Attic and now 15 years later I'm reading it again. From beginning to end this book is magnificent...about a girl and her 3 siblings locked away in an attic while her mother is off rubbing elbows with the snoots. The book raises moral issues and really gets you thinking about the choices you would make if you were in the same situation...feeling and yearning the way the main character does in the book. A must read for anyone old enough to know right from wrong, good from evil.

Summary: A chilling tale that never leaves you
Review: This is in my opinion one of the greatest works of fiction that I've ever read. I read it the first time when I was 16. I'll admit it sent chills down my back and the story itself disturbed me. I fell in love with Cathy, how she had to care for her two younger siblings, and learn about love, sex, and devotion from the only person available, her brother. The cruel grandmother and even crueler mother will make you wonder if there really are women this evil. If you've only seen the movie, you missed three quarters of the story. READ THE BOOK! It can bring a tear to even the most cold-hearted person you know.

Summary: Devoted Fan
Review: I have read every book V.C. Andrews has ever written. She was a genius! Never in my life, did I enjoy reading until the day I bought "Flowers in the Attic" at a garage sale for $.50. I have no idea what possessed me to buy it being that I hated reading. I was about 15 years old at the time. But I did and now I am a loyal fan of hers. I am so sorry she has passed on but I hope that her work will continue. I just pray that whomever has taken on the task of completing her work will not butcher it. So far I am pleased. I fully recommend ANYTHING V.C. Andrews has written.

Summary: Hidden Away
Review: As the days, months and years pass for the four Dresdon Dolls, I became a member of the attic also...I could visualize the setting, and I FELT the romance grow between Chris and Cathy... I wanted them to escape sooner and I was disappointed that Cory had to die, but it was an excellent beginning to the most wonderful book I've ever read, "Petals on the Wind". Both books are a "Must Read".
