    Despite variance in quality, Petals on the Wind is surely a compelling sequel to its predecessor, despite some of its digestible flaws, it is disturbing, shocking and leaves you at the edge of your seat. But is it as absorbing and breathtaking as the first one? Surely not, like every other sequel, it is entertaining but falls flat for repetition. However, it is a must see!

    Petals On The Wind largely skews a bit underbaked to meet the promise of its own third act, and lacks the strength of Ellen Burstyn as its central figure, but there’s enough of the all-out V.C. Andrews flavor to make this installment worth a look for those who want to catch up with a family of soap people 30 years in the making.

    By alternating significant time between Cathy, Christopher, Carrie and Corinne, the ADD storytelling in Petals ensures there’s never a dull moment--or a sensible one either--and the events retained from Andrews’ novel are just bonkers enough to make the approach pay off.

    Petals isn't good enough to satisfy anyone's nostalgia, and it's not bad enough to be awesome. [30 May/6 Jun 2014, p.111]
