So this one time right after
high school my friend Todd and I were in my neighborhood
video store looking at the box for the
movie adaptation of
Flowers In The Attic, and I said, "You know who was really into this series in
high school?
Girls with long straight hair, wearing those lace-up
suede leather stoner boots, who listened to
heavy metal and dabbled in
witchcraft. That was
V.C. Andrews'
target audience."
We snickered, and then - I swear to God - a teenage girl with long straight hair wearing lace-up suede leather stoner boots and a Baphomet necklace walked up, saw that we were looking at the box, and said "That was such a good book."
