    i read the flowers in the attic series back in high school and loved it - am pretty keen to read the others but never seem to get around to finding them - maybe i should have a look at what is available now...

    Well ,there you go - I didn't notice the change of author, as I loved that one just as much

    BG - You should read the Casteel/Heaven series... they were my fav by far... I wanted to be Heaven (despite the horrid way she was treated by her Dad and the very Bold & The Beautiful life she lived as she got older ).... to this day, whenever I smell or read anything about jasmine (the scent) I still think of the grandmother in this book... hows that for teen brainwashing?!!!!!

    i am pretty sure i read that series way back in high school too HB - i remember reading Heaven and at least one other in that series, but not sure if i got to read them all - small country high school library didn't have much selection

    i think they'll be a "want" for a while - would love to get them all and have them to read when i'm ready - i had a bit of a squiz online today, but as i always do, i ended up at amazon website - and the aussie dollar is crud at the moment so i'm not goin there!

    I've seen most of them in the newsagent in the bargain bin - about $5 each!!!

    Let me know if you want me to get any for you... a lot cheaper than Amazon

    You're more than welcome to borrow my ones as well... if you don't mind the 15+yr old yellow pages

    when i have a workable room to store them in, i'll definitely look at grabbing them holly - at the moment, my study is a store room, my spare room is a store room, the gremlins room is a store room - and it's getting worse in the study and spare room as we try to gut the baby's room - i neeeeeed my shed!

    If you dont mind them second hand you can get them at markets and book exchanges very cheap. One book exchange I went to wont take them as she has so many of them

    most of my "grown up" books are second hand - i'll go scope it out when i have some space to store them - no point getting books i have to put in boxes and not get to (which is where most of our books are at the moment!)

    I also loved these books as a teen but haven't read one for ages. I loved FITA series and Dawn. They were so scandalous(sp?) So much incest and weird love triangles that made me wonder what kind of relationships she had in real life. Great books though and I have always found them easy to find at op shops.
