Broken Wings

Summary: Terrific Modern characters
Review: Broken Wings is a terrific collection of girls who ring true in today's world. I have friends just like them in so many ways and in so many ways, I am as well. I can't wait to see them at the camp. This would make a great film!

Review: How can I say this. This book is bad. It isn't just bad it's [terrible]. I wish I could sue for time wasted for reading the first chapter in this book. If thousands of people are telling you that the same formula is making your books bad stop it. This time there bad. OOoh. They still whine the are still naive and still sterotyped so perfectly It makes you sick. Poor little rich girl. Awww nobody loves her. County girl so naive caught in a trailer park nightmare shucken. Easy uneducated black girl from the wrong side. Fo rizzle. How about some girls with some back bone. An African-American female who isn't poor or stupid. Something we can be proud of. I can't see for the life of me why these books make best-seller. Oh yeah people like me are sucked in just hoping they'll get better. Why don't I just ask the sun to rise in the north.

Summary: The best of the miniseries/multi-girl books...
Review: I have read every VCA novel and of course love the originals. I agree with the other poster that it was nice he didn't do a book for each girl... but they are young and don't have the fire. Keep trying Ghostwriter... you're getting there. We hope.

Summary: Much better than the last series!!!
Review: I really enjoyed "Broken Wings." After being very disappointed with the last 2 series of books, I was extremely happy to read this book. My favorite was Robin, daughter of a wanna-be country singer. I'm looking forward to reading "Midnight Flight."

Summary: Lessons to Learn
Review: I think this book is a valuable volume to show lessons to learn from mistakes so they don't get made in life. Robin could have said no to Keefer about robbing the grocery store she was working at. She could have concentrated on the co-workers who were kind to her. It was wrong of Teal to take the SUV when her dad said no. She shouldn't have even thought about the shoplifting game. Instead of taking without paying WAIT UNTIL YOU HAVE MORE MONEY!!!! That is what I had read from a young lady in the Parade section of Sunday's paper of the Quad City Times. Here are some ways you can go about getting what you want: you can do some chores for somebody else or you can try to get a job in the community. I am sorry that Phoebe didn't have her aunt and her uncle listen to her when she needed their help. She could have worked more with her teacher. Running away wasn't the answer. She could have told her teacher on the following Monday what had happened. I am sure he would have believed her when she said she acted in self defense when Ashley and his cronies attacked her.

Summary: Pretty Good, Nothing Amazing
Review: I thought this book was ok. It caught my attention pretty well. There are a lot of similarities between the characters and characters from previous VC books. i.e. Jade and Teal Robin's life and Melody's life. I think the GW needs to just sit down and think up one really good ceative idea then run with it under his/her own name. I am looking forward to the sequel, Midnight Flight though. Although, I'm sure it'll have an evil administrator and the girls will band togeather to get through whatever they need to get through and we'll have another happy ending.

Summary: Mini-series?
Review: I thought this book was okay. I didn't like that once you started to get into the characters the story ended. I like the series better, like Ruby and Dawn. I recently read a book by another author, Sherry A. Mauro. Her novel EVEN ANGELS FALL is similar to VCA's narrative style. I highly recommend this book to any VCA fans and horror/mystery booklovers!

Summary: Better than later projects
Review: I've read V. C. Andrews since I was thirteen years old, and now I'm twenty. I have to say the older books are better than the news ones since her death. The miniseries weren't the best, but this new book has taken on a better edge. I like how three girls' stories are wrapped into one book. You get the prospective from three different people. Although, the three stories seem to mesh together, many similarities between each girls life, I would have liked different scenarios, i.e. the shop lifting problems. Overall, I say this book was enjoyable compared to some from the recent past. I'm looking forward to the sequel.
