Publisher's Summary
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.

Just like I remembered.
I could not stop listening. So beautifully read the story that I read when it first came out as a teenager brought back every memory.

An uncomfortable classic
I loved this book when I was a teenager and got this mainly for nostalgic reasons, but it’s a genuinely enthralling story. I feel like it needs about 100 trigger warnings or some sort of disclaimer to be clear about some of the more troubling aspects of the book, especially how (spoiler alert) Chris’ attack on Cathy is handled (as it is kind of minimised and disregarded). The writing style is over the top, which suits the unbelievable nature of the plot itself. There are so many dark twists and turns in this book and it sets the stage perfectly for the rest of the series.

The audiobook for the Book 2 - Petals on the Wind
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.
