Description To Books Dollanganger Boxed Set: Flowers in the Attic / If There Be Thorns / Petals on the Wind / Seeds of Yesterday / Garden of Shadows(Dollanganger, prequel-4 (Dollanganger #1-5)
I stumbled upon these books when I was ten or eleven. My poor mother had nooooo idea! I was immediately obsessed with V.C. Andrews, and devoured every series. This one is the best, though. Even now, more than twenty years later, I can remember the mood of the novels, the dread, the longing, the forbidden passions.Now, since reading these, I have gotten a degree in literature, so I can in no way endorse these as life-changing or intellectually stimulating. But they are perfectly 'what they are' - juicy, scandalous, riveting, horrific nuggets of guilty-pleasure reading.

Okay...I read these books years ago but they were SO MUCH FUN!!!! May not be the best written, or the best plot but they sure are compelling!Another guilty pleasure. Read these a few times. On the most recent read, which was a few years back, I couldn't get through the entire forth book. I remember loving the prequel.
Christ, these books terrified me and yet I loved them as a YA.

I really enjoyed Flowers in the Attic but the rest of the series wasnt as good. I just couldnt get into it.
A haunting saga from beginning to end, we see a perfect circle of fate.
I really enjoyed the switch in perspectives from the boy to the mother, but the boy (Bart) seemed unrealistically disturbing and the contrast to Julian surprising. I guess I just didn't like the story as much.Im impressed I still remember the names though, seeing as it was a few years ago I read it!Certainly a memorable book.
I read these in jr. high, which is so screamingly inappropriate I can't even stand it. They still live in my mind as some of the trashiest, kitschiest, most overblown, overdramatic drivel ever written. Therefore, they have a very special place in my heart.
