Ruby
Ruby | Virginia Andrews
The first novel in the spellbinding Landry family series. The only family Ruby Landry has ever known are her loving grandparents. Although her mother is dead and she has never met her mysterious father, Ruby is grateful for all she has, especially when her attraction for handsome Paul Tate blossoms into a wonderful love. But Paul's wealthy parents forbid him to associate with a poor Landry, and when Ruby's grandmother dies, she is forced to seek out the father she has never known in his vast New Orleans mansion. There, in a house of lies, madness and cruel torment, a shameful deception comes to light, and Ruby must cling to her memories of Paul: for only their love can save her now.

This was something. Between the almost incest, attempted SA, extortion, and just plain entitlement of some the characters, I was not feeling it. This was my first V.C. Andrews. I‘m not saying it will be the last, but I‘m not coming back soon. #Bookspin

Soubhiville I don‘t know if this is one of the author‘s books I read as a teen, but that sounds right on track for her. I‘d say if this didn‘t appeal to you, you‘d be safe to just skip all her others. 16h
Jadams89 @Soubhiville Thanks for the tip! I‘m not sure if I just wasn‘t in the right mood for it - I have one more on my shelf, so I may try again later this year. 16h

It‘s no longer Friday in 🇦🇺 but whatever.

1. V C Andrews is amazing! Ruby was my favourite series.
2. Bit of both. 👍🏻 Best way to go.
3. Lynette & Ian. Carmel & Jungle (James).
4. The list is VERY long. The Goonies, Grease, Beauty & The Beast are just a few...
5. Melbourne, Australia. Basically home, but I love it so much. 💚

First real novel I read when I was eleven. Definitely not a book for that age range but I remember it being very interesting to me at the time!
