Book Reviews of Ruby (Landry Saga)
Book Review: I loved this book!
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a great book and I sypathize with Ruby and Giselle's a total witch...blah, blah, blah, I have something more important to say! Okay, so Andrew Neiderman is a great author and I like what he does with the VC books. All of the series by him that I've read (in chronological order)-Dawn, Heaven, Ruby-I've loved. But it's all too similar! Basically, every heroine in these books are extremely poor girls who redeem themselves to high society and on the way manage to fall in love with a biological or adoptive (or both) relative(s) and find have illegitimate children! Them, their daughters, and mothers also coincidentially get raped and/or almost raped by their father..or stepfather..or brother..or grandfather..or uncle..Pick one. Some influencial male in their lives. Why does Mr. Neidermann follow this general storyline? I have seen several sites that have theorized a pattern in his stories. Here is what I am going to do-I am going to read the Runaway series and the newer series. I understand they are terrific and also quite short. If I read about one more lower class girl who get raped and rich, I give up with Neidermann. It's actually quite sad that Ms. Andrews name gets put on these books.Book Review: It is definitely the best of all her series.
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a huge V.C. Andrews fan. I have read all of her books. I eagerly wait for each new book and series. However, I think this book is the first of the best of all of her series. Of course, I am biased because I am from Louisiana. The majority of the information is true about Louisiana, but some of it is over-exaggerated. None-the-less, she must have come to Louisiana and observed to be able to know some of the things mentioned in the book. I have read this book alon with all of the others numerous times and will continue to do soBook Review: It's a pretty good book.

Summary: 5 Stars
This book is of the same quality as my other favorite, Flowers in the Attic. Although I would not recommend that anyone under 12 read this book, it is a great read, and I think all other books pale in comparison now that I've read all of Andrews'. I will continue to read and re-read these books for a long time and I guarantee anyone who reads Ruby will fall in love with it and go out and buy the rest of the series like I did!
