I loved „Flowers in the Attic“ and finished it in a week. I was really exited to read this sequel, but at first it really took me some time to get into it. The first half felt kind of slow-paced, but it really took off and got more eventful in the end.Â
I do have to say, some of the time jumps felt really weird, like some events were so detailed and then we jumped to three years later in just two sentences. That was quite weird to adapt to, as well as some of the events just felt odd, likedeath after death just was unrealistic for me, and how cathy and her mother finally met also didn’t live up to my expectations
I felt like i was reading a wattpad book, just too many shocking and sad events squeezed into the book.Â
Still, i think the writing was really good, even though i’m not a fan of the ending and always wished i could go into this book and shake cathy and tell her to stop acting out, i kind of liked the book in a weird way. Definitely made me think and sometimes my jaw hit the floor, it was quite graphic sometimes. So i guess i would recommed it, if you wanna know what happens to Cathy and the others, but i wouldn’t read it again.
