Summary
From the legendary New York Times best-selling author of Flowers in the Attic and My Sweet Audrina (now Lifetime movies) comes the first book in the Casteel Family series - for fans of Emma Donoghue (Room) and Kay Hooper (Amanda).
Of all the folks on the mountain, the Casteel children are the lowest. Even the families that buy them think so.
Heaven Leigh Casteel may be the prettiest, smartest girl in the backwoods, but her cruel father and weary stepmother work her like a mule. For the sake of her brother Tom and the other little ones, Heaven clings to the hope that someday she can show the world they are worthy of love and respect.
But when the children’s stepmother can’t take it anymore and abandons the family, Heaven’s father hatches a scheme that will alter her young life forever. Being sold to a strange couple is just the beginning; ripping away the thin veneer of civilization and learning the adult secrets of the world around her means Heaven must abandon someone, too - the child she was, to become the woman her mother never had the chance to be.

Disliked the narration at times: voice just didn't suit the story for me. I liked the fact there was no music at the end of chapters

This is yet another great book by Virginia Andrew
I first read this book at 17 and now 20 years later at 37 and I still enjoyed it as much. The way she describes things in the book really make it like a movie playing in your mind.

Good old read
I read this book years ago. I loved the narrator had the twang expected from a “hill girl”. I now need a book full of happiness to read

A truly thrilling read
Candace Thaxton gives a truly captivating performance as she brings the world of Virginia Andrews "Heaven" to life. The story is an instant classic Gothic Horror, with compelling characters and a twisted story of family secrets and betrayals. Thaxton gives perfect voices for each of the characters, especially Heaven as the main narrator, who she stays perfectly in character for.
A truly great book, but this audiobook made it a much more enjoyable read.

Good story
Good story slumps a little in places not gritty enough for me story a bit slow going . Not offending the narrator but she has the most irritating story telling voice spoilt it for me.
