Like most girls my age I read "Flowers in the Attic" when it came out in 1979. We couldnt get enough; I went on to read the 2nd, 3rd and 4th books, although I dont remember enjoying anything after the 2nd book. So I never even noticed when this book, the fifth in the series, and the prequel came out. But I am so glad I came across this! It had great tie-ins to the first book, reading them 30+ years apart I couldnt believe how many details I remembered from the first book. This book answered my questions, once I started reading I found it hard to put the book down, the history here is even more twisted than "Flowers"!
