I did feel disappointed that for no fucking reason at all, Jimmy was a love interest. It didn’t feel logical or natural at all.

This story does not introduce fresh ideas. It seems that the success of Flowers in the Attic means the author is reticent to digress from themes that made this book such a success. Unfortunately, by doing so, the storyline becomes too predictable and the excitement of reading on to discover the plot i ...more
