About this listen

One of the most popular storytellers of all time, V.C. Andrews (Flowers in the Attic, My Sweet Audrina) continues an engrossing saga of psychological suspense with this second book of the Landry Family series - soon to be a Lifetime movie!

Fate has whisked Ruby away from a simple life in the Louisiana Bayou but her new riches bring more treachery than happiness in this unputdownable and darkly evocative novel.

Even a year removed from living in the bayou, Ruby still wonders at the splendor of her family’s New Orleans mansion. She rejoices in the love of the father she had never known, even as true happiness remains as elusive as swamp mist. Her stepmother sneers at her backwater upbringing, and while discovering she has a twin sister should be a cause for joy, Gisselle has greeted Ruby with nothing but a bitter heart.

When Ruby’s father chooses an idyllic boarding school for his daughters’ senior years, a fresh start with Gisselle seems possible. But Ruby’s kind isn’t welcome at Greenwood, and the legendarily strict headmistress plots with her stepmother to make life miserable. Worse, with her twin on a mission to break every school rule, Ruby is left to suffer the humiliating punishments. So when a terrible tragedy leaves Ruby alone in a world that never really wanted her, only her Cajun strength can give her daring escape plan any hope of success. The weather on the bayou was nothing compared to the storm about to tear through her family.

Narrator is horrible

The story is good but the narrator is horrific! I listened to the first book a couple of years ago and loved that narrator and was quite disappointed when I started listening to the second book and had to hear this horrible narration of the story.! I’m not sure if I will make it through book 34 and five if I have to listen to this narrator who can’t even change her voice to sound like a man or someone from the bayou it’s so sad that listening to such a great story is physically painful LOL

Worthy Sequel

A worthy Sequel to Ruby. Very entertaining even if a bit predictable a times. I found myself hoping that poor Ruby would get a break. As frustrating as that was, it kept me wanting to hear more just to see if she'd have a moment of peace. I am looking forward to listening to the next installment of the Landry Series.

Narrator is ok

The narrator is great until she reads the male parts. She makes every male sound like a serial killer about to harm Ruby or assault her. It always sounds terribly creepy.

Love

I’ve always loved this series and Ruby will always be my favorite. As an adult, I just loved to laugh with Giselle’s ways. Maybe time has turned me into a fourth/fifth novel type of woman (you know what I mean ).

Love this series

Let me start by saying they recorded the first book, Ruby, many years ago. They used a woman that had to be at least 60 years old. Her voice was gruff and stiff and made it impossible to love listening to due to her terrible job. What a total disappointment it was when I listened to it. I read these books when they first came out, I still can't understand what made them use an elderly woman to narrate the story of a girl of the age of 16-17. That being said, this narrator was a breath of fresh air. The story was and is a great read, but I wanted to listen to them too. If I could trade in the first book "Ruby" to get one that is the same narrator I would do it in a heartbeat. I hope that the publisher continues to use age-appropriate narrators because that first book was truly awful. This was a great listen!

weird

I read this in anticipation of the new movie that is coming out soon. It's not bad, but it almost feels like I am reading the same book series as the Heaven saga, but with gumbo.
