#59: Daughter of Darkness - V.C. Andrews

When I was a little girl, Daddy told me never to fear the dark. “We exist because of the darkness,” he told me. “All of you are daughters of darkness.”

Beloved bestselling author V.C. Andrews’s passion for vampires comes to spellbinding life in a long-awaited novel of dark desires as all-consuming—and forbidden—as in Flowers in the Attic. One night, with the sound of a young man’s scream, high school senior Lorelei discovers that her stern but loving father, who adopted Lorelei and her sisters as infants, is no ordinary man. He has raised his beautiful girls for one purpose: to lure young men into their world of shadows. Like her sisters, Lorelei has been trained in the art of seduction and warned never to fall in love. But when she meets a handsome and charming classmate, she boldly defies her family and follows her heart—even if love is a poison. . . .

REVIEW:

I've read a lot of V.C. Andrews books, but this one reaches up high on the creeptastic list! I love creepy stories and this one definitely fits that bill.

I like Lorelei a lot. She asks a lot of questions because she senses things just ain't right. Some people get turned off by such inquisitiveness, but in this case, it is quite admirable.

I wasn't surprised in the least by the outcome, but was totally surprised by the ending. I figured it would be filled with a lot more fluffy stuff than what it had. I was happy that things were left wide open, and yet not dangling off a cliff, for the next book, Daughter of Light.

Can't wait to read that one and see what happens next. I am hooked!

Suspense fans, get a copy!

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
