Flowers in the Attic by VC Andrews Have you ever imagined living locked in an attic for 3 years and 5 months? Have you ever imagined not growing up with your mother's care and love when you were 5 years old? Flowers in the Attic is one of the most original series written by VC Andrews of the Dollanganger series. It's one of the best books I've read because it's depressing and dark but touching. Included in this book report will be the setting, plot, and characters of the book. Flowers in the Attic is the tragic but hopeful story of four children.
