Andrews, Virgina C., VC. Flowers in the Attic. N.p.: n.p., n.d. Print.

Flowers in the Attic is about four innocent children who are locked away into an attic by their selfish mother and grandmother. As the mo tends to follow her old habits, she spends less and less time with her kids. Eventually the mom stops seeing her kids and lives her life as if she never had kids, but what does it cost her and her kids? How did all of this lead to the kids being locked into the attic? Flowers in the Attic is a thrilling book that leaves you with so many questions. It is a series with Garden of the Shadows, Petals on the wind, If there be Thorns, and Seeds of Yesterday.

I remember you telling be about this book and it sounded mysterious and interesting. The way you talk about you just want to know what happened to the mother that made her want to stop talking to her kids, or why she would lock them in the attic. The book sound like a good read and I might just pick it up and read it sometime.

As i'm reading your book review I'm already having weird feelings towards this novel. I tend to have a little frustration with books like these. I'm not a big fan on books of neglect even with happy endings, but it seems like a good book though. I just think it would be a lot more eye-catching to me if one of the children that were abandoned actually end up meeting a guy who falls in love with her. I know, I know. Im a lovey-dovey on books like what I just explained or even biographies!

This book sounds really interesting but also really sad. Why would they lock their children up in an attic? What help does that bring any of them? That's something you must read to see how it plays out.

I've seen previews for the TV show and it seemed pretty good but kinda graphic, I'm really interested in reading this book.

Aw this sounds like a more sad book. I have a spot for sad books however so I will have to give this a try!
