I didn't like it, but I liked it!It's terrible and at the same time terribly good.I was fed up with the stupidity and "innocence" of the children but then I remembered it is from 1950 and well, maybe children were that innocent.I wanted revenge but didn't get it.I wanted action but didn't have any.T...
I first read V.C. Andrews's bestselling horror novel Flowers in the Attic when I was 12 or 13 years old... as many of us did, I'm sure. Recently a very good friend of mine suggested a reread - a reread specifically for all of the adults who read this in our childhood, to see how we feel about the bo...

I read this because it was mentioned as a book comparable to Forbidden in its themes. I found it a shabby cousin to that book. The writing is quite poor and the characters are mostly flat. I read the whole thing mostly because I kept thinking it would get better. I just could not imagine childre...
As I learned in Room, some seriously messed up stuff can and probably will happen when you lock people up in a small, enclosed space for long periods of time. I’m curious to know if any studies have been made on this anomaly because it seems like it might happen more often than you’d think. Like, fo...
Honestly, it's not all that great of a book. It's ridiculous and over-the-top but the twisted story is just so fascinating and engrossing. I kept reading because I just had to know what happens next, even though I was already spoiled about some of the more shocking parts, but I think knowing all the...
