About this listen

Celebrate the 40th anniversary of the enduring gothic masterpiece Flowers in the Attic - the unforgettable forbidden love story that earned V.C. Andrews a fiercely devoted fan base and became an international cult classic.

At the top of the stairs there are four secrets hidden - blond, innocent, and fighting for their lives....

They were a perfect and beautiful family - until a heartbreaking tragedy shattered their happiness. Now, for the sake of an inheritance that will ensure their future, the children must be hidden away out of sight, as if they never existed. They are kept in the attic of their grandmother’s labyrinthine mansion, isolated and alone. As the visits from their seemingly unconcerned mother slowly dwindle, the four children grow ever closer and depend upon one another to survive both this cramped world and their cruel grandmother. A suspenseful and thrilling tale of family, greed, murder, and forbidden love, Flowers in the Attic is the unputdownable first novel of the epic Dollanganger family saga.

The Dollanganger series includes: Flowers in the Attic, Petals in the Wind, If There Be Thorns, Seeds of Yesterday, Garden of Shadows, Beneath the Attic, and Out of the Attic.

Loved the narrating. Story was chilling and had me on the edge of my seat from start to end! Very Lolita-esque in the way that it makes you feel about uncomfortable topics.

Mina Suvari killed it with this one!

I was sure I saw this as a movie in the 90's as a kid. I just remember the mum getting her comeuppance falling through a trellis roof thing on her wedding day. 30 years later I downloaded the book and the mum did NOT get her comeuppance and it turned out to be the most tedious, saddest and most depressing story ever! 5 stars to the narrator. 0 stars for the content of the story.

Frustrating

There's no audiobook for Petals on the Wind - which is the second book in this series. I hope they create one soon. I would like to listen to the entire series.
