Kept on the top floor of their grandmother’s vast mansion, their loving mother assures them it will be just for a little while. But as brutal days swell into agonizing months and years, Cathy, Chris, and twins Cory and Carrie realize their survival is at the mercy of their cruel and superstitious grandmother…and this cramped and helpless world may be the only one they ever know.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
It’s the ‘70s. Four children are locked away in the upper rooms of a grand house; their mother and fundamentalist grandmother have imprisoned them to secure an inheritance. As years of deprivation and horrifying punishments pass, older siblings Cathy and Chris mature and their dreams and desires become more adult. V.C. Andrews made her name as the author of this dramatic family saga laced with hidden secrets and forbidden love. Flowers in the Attic remains an irresistible and sometimes shocking page-turner.

Floors In The Attic
Fantastic book, couldn't put it down. Andrews painted this book so realistically, you felt all the pain & happiness these poor children felt. Great novel can't wait to read the sequel.
Awesome
This was one of the few books I thoroughly enjoyed reading when I was younger. It is so sick and twisted but so beautiful at the same time. I love how much love and dedication Cathy has to her siblings and I can completely relate to every aspect of her character. This will always be a favorite for me.
One of my favourites
I was given this book by a stranger on a bus when i was 16. As soon as I read the first few pages, I didn't resurface until the end. I've just finished rereading it, now as a mother and my God did I cry. The story is so beautifully written and the characters are so easy to understand despite the trials and growth. This book will take you on a journey!!!
