Oh, the things one learns when listing a book. This is the fifth book in the Dollanganger Family series, out of eleven, of which most were not written by V. C. Andrews after all. Virginia Andrews died in 1986, making this one, published in 1987, perhaps the last one she worked on. The other six, published between 2014 and 2020, were written by Andrew Neiderman, as were any other V. C. Andrews books published after 1987. Anyway, this book has been well used and has its share of wear, plus a nice coffee stain (see the last two photos), which impacts from page 315 to the back cover. It doesn't pose any difficulty for reading the pages, but it just doesn't look nice. The price is the lowest I can go without losing money.
