Yes. Read the full series
Read several of the series by VC Andrews and loved them!
Read it and loved it.
I’ve read the entire series many, many, many times.
I like it.
Read all the books in the series.
Read them all & was majorly creeped out by them since they’re all about child abuse, incest & murder….
I didn’t like it, I read the first one and figured that was enough. Didn’t care for the subject matter. Don’t like reading about children being mistreated.
That’s why I try to read the book first
Good series!
My mom absolutely loves the series. It has so many ups and downs and every timw you read it, you’ll notice something you hadn’t before. Great character development
Was going to read it but watched the movie first…can’t deal with child abuse, murder & incest
I read it as an adult, and I loved it. After Flowers, I read every single one.
Loved the first book but found each subsequent book to diminish in quality.
I read it in college- at age 20 ish. I enjoyed it then. At age 63, I don’t know if I would like it. It’s pretty bizarre!
I didn’t read it, but saw the movie. Creeped me out. Of course I was like 11 at the time… lol. I’m not sure it’s something I would “enjoy”, though I think I could handle it better now as an adult than I did as a kid watching the movie.
The 80s movie or remake?
You have to decide for yourself. Years ago I read Flowers in the Attic. That’s the only one I read. Did not want to read anything else. Could not handle the child abuse and trauma those kids had to endure.
what happens to this poor family is heartwrenching, it’s a great drama and full of pain and hard to read but if you can dish it out it’s really a great story. I only read the first one through and that was a LONG time ago. I don’t know why I never went on to the rest though I’ve read My Sweet Audrina (which is a standalone) and most of the Ruby series. It’s good, just brace yourself.
Love that series
I just bought Flowers in the Attic at a book sale. I had no idea it was even apart of a series! I’m looking forward to reading it!
I liked them, but I like reading about messed up stuff. There is a series of movies also. They’re kind of cheesy, but I watched them anyway.
Loved it!!!!! I have nearly all her books, but those are the best, in my opinion!!!
Dark and heartbreaking in a twisted, perverse way. And yet, strangely addictive at the same time.
I totally agree
What she said…
Read them years ago, they’ve stuck in my brain as I’d never read anything quite like them before. Give them a go x
I read it a long time ago and was addicted. It reminds me of a soap opera since there’s so much going on. I suggest you read flowers in the attic and see how you like it.
You need to read the whole series!!! My absolute favorite ❤ I loved the characters and got so close to them that when I read the last book I couldn’t deal with the fact that’s it’s over ????? just start it and decide for yourself if it’s something you like or not! 🙂
Very good series
Heart wrenching and disturbing
I loved that. Absolutely… Andrews is… awesome… Chris <3
If like Gothic romance or fiction you’ll like it but v.c Andrews always has weird abusive incest related plot lines so naturally most teen girls I knew in the 80s and 90s read them all for the sex scenes lol. The movie with Louise Fletcher is hilarious.
I didn’t like them but had to read them to find out what happened!
The subject matters of the books can be tough but I really enjoyed them all.
Grew up on it and love it
It was one of the first series i read. I loved it but found it a bit disturbing.
I loved it in high school. That’s when I started binge reading lol
Really good and I recommend it.
First two was great then it went downhill
I think all the Flowers in the Attic books were good. You would really enjoy them.
I’ve read the series at least a half dozen times.
I read them and thought they were interesting. No offense to victims of incest, but I did not find the incest in the book shocking or upsetting considering the situation.
My mom loved it and so did my niece( who never reads).
My first “grown up” book series and loved it!
It’s years ago since I read it; but I remember thoroughly enjoying it x
Haven’t read the book but the movie was weird
Omg! They were popular when I was at school and that was a loooong time ago!
I liked them but they are kinda messed up…
I loved them. I really enjoyed them.
I liked the first one but the others not so much
Read all of them years ago. I little depessing for some people.
Yes its a very good series, quite disturbing but once you start reading it you can’t put it down.
I like books that tend to lift you up at some point. Not just drag you through the muck of the darker side of humanity with no chance for a reprieve.
I’ve started reading one of the series of families ‘dawn’ good so far ?
Interesting but creepy.
Classic and brilliant
I loved the first one and the last one, Flowers in the Attic and Garden of Shadows. The rest were just filler to me.
