V.C. Andrews discussion

Feel free to share what you've been reading lately. :)

Anything or just VC? Is she considered gothic in any way?

Anything is great. I'm always looking for something new to read. :)

I am currently reading "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children" by Ransom Riggs

Oh. Good for me!! I'm reading two books right now. One is a paperback. The other is audio. Using it for commute and waking. It's a really long one too. It is Rosamund Pilchur's Winter Solstice. Only on about page 50 but it's great to listen to while walking. The paperback is a shorter one be mary Stewart. Thornyhold. I love it. Wish I had it on audio but audible does not have it. So paperback it is. I just don't have as much down time as I would like or is be finished with it.

I attempted to read Peculiar Children this summer for a group read and got it from the library. But summer got too busy too fast and just couldn't get it in. Looked good tho. Do u like it?

currently reading

I'm only to about page 100 and I've been reading it for quite a while, but what I've read so far I've really liked, even though it's supposed to be a teen read. As much as I would like to get through it and move onto another book, I've been having a hard time managing reading lately. Though I love it.

I thought the pictures were very cool. It might be a better winter read, and I might get it again. My library actually has it on digital. But it stays checked out. Must be really popular right now. Didn't realize it was a teen read.

It has a second book out already, called "Hollow City."

whoa! Really? Ok, maybe this winter. I will have to check that out on here.

I just started Four: A Divergent Collection. I just finished If I Stay and Where She Went.

I'm reading ...so far it's not bad!

I read that series Erin and i thought it was pretty good. I read alot of bad things being said about it while reading it and even after but I liked it.

I finished reading Four and now I'm moving on to The Giver for group read that I joined. I'm on chapter 3.

I just finished reading the second book Gathering Blue in the The Giver series. So now on to the third in the series Messenger.

I'm currently reading Festive in Death new book from "In Death" Series.

Pride and Prejudice and ZombiesI am currently reading Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. It has two things that I love in one . A Jane Austin Novel and Zombies :)

So I just finished the third book in The Giver series, Messenger. It ended with such a sad ending. Well on to the fourth and final book in this series Son. I am going to be honest when I first started reading these books I didn't care for them that much but now I think they are a pretty good read.

imreading Smoke Gets in Your eyes

I know it took me a lot longer than it should have. It seem like it took me forever to get through this book but I finally finished the last book in The Giver series Son. And I think I am going to start reading Dangerous Creatures.

I finished the last 4 books in the mortal instrument series, they weren't bad! I'm starting !

just finished Smoke Gets in Your Eyes

I was planning on reading but I don't have time this month! Hopefully I'll get to it next month...

Just starting The Power Of Now. The reviews are pretty phenomenal. I figured it couldn't hurt to give it a try.

I have been listening to two audiobook series, The Selection series by Kiera Cass and The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer. I am currently on book three The One from The Selection series and I am on book three Cress from The Lunar Chronicles.

I just picked up Sage's Eyes (found it at my local Walmart because the bookstore didn't have it in yet) I cannot wait to start it as soon as I finish the book I'm reading now.

I picked up Sage's Eye the day it came out as well but I am in the middle of two other book series right now. So I will probably read it when I am done with them.

Right now I am reading it is very intense, its a great book but at times I find myself only able to read one chapter at a time-and they are short chapters-because of what she went through and how painful it is to know that someone actually went through what she did. After I finish this memoir I am definitely going to happily dive into a VCA novel. I haven't decided yet if I am going to read or

I am now reading Garden of Shadows (prequel to the Dollanganger series written after the series) it's about Olivia's (the evil grandmother) life and how she met Malcolm (the dying grandfather) and how their life together all happened... It's pretty good so far, I'm thinking it might help me understand why she was such an evil grandmother.

I did pick up Sage's Eyes a couple of days ago, but right now I am reading the Calendar Girls: January.

I'm currently reading two different books - The Witches: Salem 1692 by Stacy Schiff and also Mary: Unleashed by Hillary Monahan - I am planning to start up another VCA book once I finish theses just haven't decided which on: Sages Eyes, My Sweet Audrina or Heart Song

I'm reading !

I just started House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski

I tried reading that, it was interesting. Hope you enjoy it!

I'm intrigued so far

I have been reading so much Ellen Hopkins!

I've been reading the Clearwater Witches series by Madeline Freeman

I'm flying through the Christopher Diaries series and its pretty weird!

I am listening to the audiobook of Winter book five of The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer

I'm on book 3 of 5 of Clearwater Witches.

Let's Explore Diabetes With Owls

I'm reading Olivia it's the 5th book in the Logan Series. The first 3 books I personally see as like a trilogy and then the 4th book and this one are really read if you want more background on Laura and Olivia.

Currently I"m reading Into the Garden it's the 5th book in the Wildflower series. I have to say that I am really enjoying this series and definitely recommend it!

Whitefern; V.C. Andrews It's the sequel to My Sweet Audrina

I've been trying to finish Shopaholic to the Rescue, but I've been so preoccupied.

I am reading Scarlet Rain by Kristin Cast

Currently I'm reading The Asylum but looking to finish it in a day or two because I just picked up Whitefern last night and really want to start it. I am so curious as to how Audrina's life continued.

Reading Whitefern now, must say 100 pages in and it's just now starting to look like it could get dark and interesting. Certainly doesn't have all the different drama segments that My Sweet Audrina had, this ones a bit more repetitive in the same thing that's going on.

Hello everyone! I go by Jay Catsby on my profile and V.C. Andrews is my favorite author! I just joined this group. I am currently reading "The Girl on the Train." In all honesty, I am only reading it now to finish it so that I can move on to "My Sweet Audrina!" The Dollanganger and Christopher's Diary series are so fantastic and I am looking forward to reading more. Every time I enter into any bookstore the first shelf I seek out is the V.C. Andrews. I am so excited to be a part of this group now and looking profoundly into these magnificent and macabre works!

Hi Jay, I also read "The Girl on the Train" last year. It kept me interested with every page that I turned. I had sort of worked out who the villain was before reaching the climax in the book. Although I did enjoy this book I have to admit that Virginia Andrews books are unique and hold a different type of intrigue. She is definitely one of my favourite authors. Maybe I enjoy her books because I am able to relate to the characters more so than the characters written by other authors.
