Summary: OK
Review: I like V.C. Andrews, I've read the Heaven series, Flower series, the Melody series, the Orphan series, and the Rain series, they are all pretty good.... but I am really annoyed with the newer ones, Melody and Rain.... because they are all goody-goodies and say "Mommy" fifty times a page. "Mommy and Daddy will be worried" are their favorite quotes. soooooo irritating! You NEVER hear them say Mother, Father, Mom, or Dad. And I wish they would act more mysterious.... like the earlier ones. And they can't ever answer "Yes," they have to say "Yes, Mommy" or "Yes, Uncle Roy" why do they always have to say the name afterwards?? I think they need to grow up.

Summary: zzzzzzzzzzz
Review: I love VC Andrews but the Rain series is very boring. They start out pretty well, but by the time you get to the last book, this one, you pretty much don't care what happens at all. Stick with Flowers in the Attic Series, cutler series, casteel series, and the ruby series. Leave the new stuff alone.

Summary: Expecting
Review: I think these books are very good. However, I was expecting a little more from The End of the Rainbow. The first three books in the series really left me counting down the days until the next book in the series was released. Unfortunately the last book was really easy for me to put down and go do something else. It really took me a lot longer to read this book. The book did have some great potential, but it was never developed. Unfortunately, I felt like I had to finish it because I had read the rest of the series. Also, the ending made me feel like the story should go on with Summer. Of course, then you run in the problem of how long are they going to drag this out. I am still looking forward to the next series.

Summary: It was good
Review: I thought this book was good, but it was sooooo predictable! The same thing happens over and over. The ghostwriter needs to come up with some new ideas. The book did vary a little bit. I do suggest any VCA fan read it. It was over all, a good book.

Summary: End of the Rainbow
Review: I thought this book was good, especially because it was supposed to take place in the time period we live in. However, it reminded me that in the first book "Rain", Rain listens to cd's and so I thought that book was supposed to be in the 90's. But, it couldn't have been unless Summer is actually living in the future! It seems like the author should have paid more attention to these kinds of details. I liked Harley and Summer, but I have to say I was a little surprised that Aunt Allison wasn't too cruel to Summer and that Roy wasn't as aggressive towards Rain as I thought he would probably rape her but he didn't. I guess I was going by the usual "outline" of these books. This one was different but the same.

Summary: Thought is was really good...
Review: I thought this story was great...I really liked this book along with her other resent stories. I'm a teenager and my mom got me into reading her cause I wanted to read something one day. I haven't read any of her older books from when she was actually alive and I've been told that they were really good. I would like to try reading flowers in the atic but I have to finish reading this newest series lol! I have read a couple of her series and a half and this book was really good because it had a really nice ending. Especially with Summer-n-all. That gurl is very intelligent and I would love it if she became a start of her own series even though some of those hard core V. C. Andrews fans may not like it...I personally would.

Summary: Better to Name it "A Dark Abyss of Repetitive Bull"
Review: I was hoping that I wouldn't be subjected to the pain and torture of watching Rain's little demon spawn grow up. This girl is probably the idea that Corrine's mother had of Cathy. Incomplete, unoriginal, two dimentional, and spineless. She wasn't even provided with a crappy classic "Heaven" spine! She was nearly worse than Annie was in The Gates of Paradise. And with her description of her little boyfriend as looking like Kevin Bacon, a strange a failing attemp to seem with the times (which doesn't make sence seeing as Rain had CDs and ghetto ... she would have to be a future girl) all hope of keeping the fact that the ghost writer is in fact male and without the feminine definition of good looking a secret was lost in mere seconds.
The story should have been narrated by the boy in my opinion, it wasn't as if it were actually Summer's story anyway. I was quite pleased with If There Be Thorns with not only MALE narrators but TWO narrators, who were children I might add, a most delicious touch. I guess I can't hope too much about this guy though... Afterall he is the hateful reason behind my loathing of the words "took my breath away" (read Heart Song to see what I mean.)
Heh ... and you thought Chibiusa of Sailor Moon was bad ... think again. This ones got the makings of being on my worst books ever list, for one reason, she lacks a spine of any kind.
All in all, this book would get a zero if only the site let me...

Summary: ...........grrrr
Review: i would have really enjoyed this book if it had more in it. the book is good but i guess i just expected too much. Ruby is my favorite vca book because it had so many things going on in it and i just expected that since all the previous books in the hudson series were great that this one would be even better.

Summary: Sedative - in book form!
Review: If you have trouble sleeping at night, you just might want to purchase this book. Trite, slow-moving, cliched, this book is just like the other V.C. Andrews book, only it is by far one of the most poorly-written published works of "art" I'd ever come across. Obviously, if V.C. Andrews's ghostwriter hadn't penned it and it had been some other schmuck, it never would have gotten published, much less touched an editor's desk.In a nutshell, this book is just like all the other V.C. Andrews books. There's plenty of rape, a bad boy with a fiery temper who feels the need to protect his lover/relative, an incarceration ala FITA or Gabrielle Landry, and a bunch of cliched metaphors and similes that will make any reader cringe. And was it just me or was Summer not worthy of a narrator where this book was concerned. Seemed to me this book should have been told by Harley. It was more about him than her anyway. Once again, if you can't sleep at night, pick up this book as a knockout pill. Otherwise, be smart and avoid it. Cheers!
