CloudBurst is the second book in the V.C. Andrews March Family Series. Whenever I begin a V.C. Andrews book, I know that I am about to embark upon a journey filled with trials and tribulations. CloudBurst is no exception. I read Family Storms before reading CloudBurst and I recommend that all readers do the same. Sasha Porter, the protagonist, is a 14 year old girl in the first book, who is living on the street’s with her mother. On one stormy night, Sasha’s life forever changes when she and her More...

Cloudburst, Storms #2, by V.C. Andrews
Grade: D

Cloudburst takes place three years after Family Storms left off with Sasha now a senior in high school, Kiera is off at college and the Marches are off making and spending money. Sasha is now very popular at school and has kind of taken on some of Kiera’s not so nice qualit More...

This is the second and probably last book in this series. In the first book, (which I read so long ago its a distant memory) Sasha and her mother were homeless and living in a box on the beach. Her mother was an alcoholic and was hit and kileld by a car driven by the March's daughter Kiera. Kiera then made Sasha's life miserable after she was taken in by this rich family.

In this book, Kiera is away at school and Sasha is now a senior in a private, very expensive school. She is the mo More...

Note: This is a joint review of both "Family Storms" and "Cloudburst"

When I think back to my adolescence, V.C. Andrews always pops into my mind. She was my absolute favorite author, with her Dollanganger/Flowers in the Attic series being the first set of books I became absolutely obsessed with. I still remember the thrills and excitement of a new V.C. Andrews release and hurrying to the local B. Dalton (pre-Barnes & Noble and Amazon) to pick it up as quickly a More...

I haven’t read V.C. Andrews since Flowers in the Attic, a long long time ago. But when presented with the opportunity to check out some of her new books, I was intrigued.

drey’s thoughts:

Sasha Porter lost her mother in an accident one rainy night, and before she knows it, she’s living the life of a very rich little girl – with the family of the girl responsible for her mother’s death. The March family dynamics are complicated, though, and her foster sister Kiera is one tee More...

3.5 Stars

When you're in the mood for some melodrama, there's no one better to turn to than VC Andrews. This book really delivers on the over the top family drama. While some of the story was a little predictable, especially the foster sister and foster father storylines, the rest was more dramatic than even what I thought would happen.

You'd think with a ghost writer writing under the VC Andrews name, that the storytelling would be subpar but this is just not the case. The More...

After reading Family Storms, the first book in this series, I was very excited to hear that a sequel was coming out. I am very disappointed with said sequel.

It's been a few years since all the events took place in Family Storms. Sasha is a senior, Kiera is in college, and things have changed. I was stunned at how Sasha changed. I did not like her character in the beginning very well at all, almost like she became a weaker version of Kiera. I was also baffled at how much Sasha put her t More...

Originality: I wouldn’t necessarily say that Cloudburst was originaly. Most of V.C. Andrews’ novels have many of the same characteristics. I mean, there was even a character with the same name as a character from a previous novel. And no, they aren’t the same person. It’s merely a “coincidence”.

Characters: I didn’t really enjoy the characters of Cloudburst as much as I’ve enjoyed those of other V.C. Andrews novels. The main character, Sasha, just seemed ungrateful. Sure, she had ever More...

This is #2 in a series & you pretty much need to read the 1st one to get what's going on in the book. Didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would. Seems like this author is a lot of the same screwed up families, just with different names. Sasha was fostered out in the first book to a very rich family after their daughter hits & kills her mother. Sasha & mother were homeless & living on a beach. Her lifestyle has completely changed and she is going to a la-di-da private school & new boy comes More...

This was not a very good follow up to the first book. First off, what is with using the first and last name of Sasha's boyfriend, Ryder when talk to Kiera. For crying out loud Kiera is her foster sister so she doesn't need to mention Ryder to Sasha as Ryder Garfield. There was too much jumping around and incomplete thoughts.
They glossed over so many things that could have been further developed, Ryder's suicide for one. Really? He takes his life and no one really questions it? Sasha do More...

My Book Views rated it: 3 of 5 stars
When a novel carries the V.C. Andrews name, there are expectations that go along with it; this story seemed more like a typical young adult general fiction novel. That’s not to say it wasn’t still a decent read (after one ignores the continuity issues), but those looking for something similar to Flowers in the Attic or Dawn will likely be disappointed.

I really enjoyed the first book of this set, and am pleased to say that the second one, although not as good as the first one, was a fun, easy read that I thoroughly enjoyed. What most suprised me was how the plot was not predictable. If asked, I can't say that I would necessarily recommend this book to adult readers, but believe YA genre fans will love it!

Although I think there could have easily been a "V.C. Andrews" twist that was not put into the book, overall I thought it was a great book and I enjoyed it.

So much tragedy in one young life. I enjoyed the book but can't understand why one character had to have all of the bad things happen to her.

Was better then some of the more recent novels that have been put out by this author in the last few years. The first in this series was Family Storms. It feels that it is only gonna be a 2 book series, but who knows.

Why. WHY am I tempted to still read these? At least this one had a twist I didn't predict, hence the 2 stars. But still. Not nearly as silly wonderful as the early stuff. You've way past lost the ability to create VC-like work, (not-so) Mysterious Ghost Writer Andrew Neiderman.
