Flowers in the Attic

Actual horror.

I'm going to go with the old classic of Flowers in the Attic.

I mean, that's the book that we were all told to avoid as a child.

And then we hid it under our beds and read it anyways.

All of Gen X.

That and Flowers in the Attic.

Oh my God, I

know.

But it's given me a lot of things to talk about, because I'm a little worried that we won't have a lot to say about the movie itself.

We are going to be watching Flowers in the Attic.

Oh, my God.

So, wow.

Now that I know what we're watching, I absolutely get why you're doing this deep dive.

Because I figured, what in the world is she bringing us that she's going to be putting this much research into? And no, this is actually kind of an important book.

Worked out fine for me,

of Danielle Steele a bit of Barbara Taylor Bradford I got very into my granny loved those big Virginia Andrews

Rosamund Pilcher those kind of books that you could sort of sink into Mary Wesley now she doesn't get enough air time she's an extraordinary novelist I've

never read Mary Wesley

I was reading the Babysitter's Club and Star Wars books.

Flowers in the Attic.

I remember all the girls read Flowers in the Attic.

Yes, I did.

I was one of the victims because my friend's like, you have to read this.
