Comments on: Review: Petals in the Wind by V.C. Andrews http://dionnegalace.com/wordpress/2010/03/19/review-petals-in-the-wind-by-vc-andrews/ Guess what I'm reading?

Your review is so funny but also so perceptive. You totally get Cathy and her crazy ways. She gets away with everything!! hahah. V.C. Andrews is some kind of genius even if she can be uber melodramatic and trashy. I mean, she got me rooting for a brother and sister to end up together! My favorite guy in the book has to be Chris (lord. when I think about that scene when he tells Cathy he will always belong to her....*swooooon*). But sometimes, I wish Chris ended up marrying and loving another woman. If he did, I think we'd see Cathy's craziness raised to the 100th power. haha. I doubt if she could handle Chris loving somebody else. Back to your review...thanks for posting this. I love your non-serious tone but all your points hit the book squarely. I read the books many years ago (when I was still a young girl)...but I still go back and re-read them once in a while for pure guilty pleasure. There's a weird satisfaction in reading about a woman who still gets the best guy in the end even after all her crazy and destructive antics. Harhar. Only in the realm of fiction can that happen.

I laughed when I read it. Cathy is a bitch but I always hated the mother more...I think Chris is a bit of a wimp. I liked Julian better.

Your review is so correct. It's funny how so many people try to make excuses for Cathy...when to do so would blunt the glorious nastiness that Catherine Doll truly is !! And I totally agree. She and Yolanda are cut from the same cloth...except Yolanda is not a hypocrite like Cathy. hahahah I love your review! Omg! Your review is so correct.

Andrews was (and when the hell was she going to die?! Turns out she's already dead and has a ghostwriter continuing the line). The summary doesn't even get half as in-depth as this review does, so I was going, "WTF?!" throughout it. I think I'm going to snag the entire series.

It was so dirty, which seems silly now but at the time it was just the The Best. Thing. Ever! Now I want to go read it again. There are NO WORDS for how much I loved this book when I was 12years old.
