V.C.'s Pieces

Fans of rage math and colossally incorrect timelines rejoice! THIS is the episode for you! It's time Grace gets the ol' prequel treatment and holy hecking honk is it upsetting. Not because of Kirby Scott's creep factor, not because of Jackie Lee's descent into Palm Beach society, not even because almost half the book takes place before they even get to Joya del Mar. If you really need to know the...

What do you get when you mix up a Palm Beach teen, a preemie babby, stuck up twin half brothers, a road trip, Linens N Things, a peach farm side jorney, and a wrong side of the tracks guitar boy? You get a shenanigan wrapped in a shenanigan with a side of shenanigry! AKA the next book in the De Beeries. Hold on to your cellular telephone, we're going nowhere slowly!

Whooms't? Willow De Beers, back and ready to get her family togetherness on. Whats't? the second dry novel in the De Beeries. Wherems't? Joya Del Mar, obvi. Whens't? A time of FAX LINES and one mention of the internet. Whyms't? Great question Dear Listener. Because sometimes there are 87 plot lines and we're goings't full speed toward Margaret Selby's sex advice!

It's time for us to delve into the newest De Beeries! Introducing Willow, the driest protagonist there ever was. Join her in the familiar territory of a shit mom, a parental discovery jorney (spoiler alert), a loving love affair of love, a lingering secret sibling (spoiler alert), and an all new but still Southern setting! Special guest appearance by a passing reference to 9/11!

Ah, the Stenetsky school for pReFoRmInG aRtS. A prestigious establishment that only 6 (12?) students get into! Our pure of corn Honey narrates this tale of dedication, mystery, fire escape shenanigans, blue clit, bad daddies, and being carried on the wings of talent till the cacophony of applause awakens you!

And lo, through the corm, she approaches. The last of the lovely latte ladies. Sweet Honey chile. She do a violin, she have a religious relative, she go to mall. Honey shows us alllllll the thrills of the Ohio corn farm and Dear Reader gets to wonder about that step uncle. And also, how DARE WE think that way of step uncle???

Frens, can you believe that one teen girl, whoomst has only ever done a singular hula hula, has the raw talent to get into an exclusive preforming arts school (spoiler alert)? To her credit, she's also a hottie with GREAT posture and has a wealthy relative, a shit mom, and a wheelchair-bound secret sibling. So you KNOW she's got what it takes!

The next entry into the Shooting Star-Search novella series is "Ice" and yes that is her real name! Join us and experience outdated terms for neurodiversity, the fattest boy who is 20 pounds overweight, jazz Daddy, heavy breasted neighbors, and an episode of "The Mama Show". Keep your eyebrows in check ya'll!

Welcome Dear Listener! Cozy up and sink your teeth into a tasty Cinnabon! Well, not so much tasty. More like "confusing" and/or "stunted". The first small boi in this series gives us a real alterna girl, lemme tell you. It also leaves us with questions like "why is Niederman all about white lipstick?".

This is like the opening of "Daria" where they're playing volleyball and the ball goes past her and then after it lands, she puts her hand out to catch it.

Ok, so this one time, at band camp, Summer (Rain's daughter) gets caught up in the WORST episode of Pimp My Ride. After some wacky home therapy and an interestingly gendered doctor, it's time to log onto AOL and Ask Jeeves about Katie's Favorite Subplot! There's a mini road trip, a dilapidated house, and some gastrointestinal adventures to round this one out!

Hoo boy, if you thought Rain had gone through it in her previous books, you are NOT READY for this one! There's a legit nice ending far too early in the book, but then 1,000 things GO DOWN. And at the end, we're left with so many unanswered questions. Most importantly, why is Rain so opposed to international calling?

Pip pip and Cheerios guvnuh, it's time to go to foggy London town! Our first international trip in the VC Andrews Literary Universe follows Rain as she goes to drama school and hoo boy does the drama find her! She may find some answers, but we also uncover more questions. Specifically, was mockney a real thing?!?!?

What's that you say? You'd really love a VC Andrews adventure, but with an uncomfortable racial tinge? Well then settle into a jukebox joint, buckle your flue belt, and get ready to meet Rain! She is from a Project but really, she has ~*~quality~*~ dontcha know? Anywho, let's all take another dirt poor to diamond rich Jorny!

Welcome to the "opulent" gathering of the VC's Pieces family! Here we gather round the lavish meaty calzones and dish about the 2014 Lifetime "Flowers In The Attic" remake staring Heather Graham Crackers and Kiernan Shipka's Unibrow! Very special guests in this episode include ~*~h u s b a n d s~*~

Wow, Niederman reaaallllyyy went off the deep end with this one and he took us with him, so now we're taking you! Words can barely describe the the antic of the Orphans With Parents nor will they prepare you for the frenzied insanity that we unleash upon you. Hit play and prepare your earholes!

It's time to meet the last Wildflower (that is not a flower) CAT! This one careens us back towards our favorite territory: namely over wrought drama, ridiculous reactions, and inappropriate family times. You know'em, you love'em (?), the tropes come marching back and they are more foolish than ever!

Next up in the teen girl therapy thunder dome is Jade! This fresh princess of Bel-Air is sooooo much more special and different than the other girls, you don't even understand. Jade takes us through her tale of mansion based neglect and parental non-involvement in her tale. Featuring special guest star CHAT ROOMS.

So, spoiler alert: big yikes on this one. Super not fun story of childhood abuse and trauma. You know that we will soldier on through any mess that Neiderman throws at us, but honestly this was ROUGH. We do it for you though! Maybe we make you chuckle a little? Anywho, find yourself a safe place before you hit play!

It's time to get Misty, y'all! What is in store for you as we begin another round of short bois? How does sun spots, marbles, tea cups, Cindy Crawford, dusty flo, RBF and wrinkles, Charles Allen Bateman, sweater puppies, uninsured motorcycles, and the criminal justice system sound? Because all that and MORE are in this episode!

It's time for the Orphans to combine their powers and activate! Activate what, you may ask? Who knows! But they're on a road trip of tropes, lemme tell ya. Wacky characters, dramatic situations, and high emotions from point A to point ? will carry this one!

We have finally made our way to the last Orphan and WOW does she have a time! In the scant pages we have to meet Raven, we get thrown into a very upsetting story of neglect, physical abuse, racism, classism, and all the other isms you can find. But, like, in a not funny way. Special guest appearance by a power outage on a very hot day!

We blow past the halfway point with Orphan number 3: Brooke! Brooke love sports! I hope her adoptive parents respect that she is her own person and let her pursue whatever interests she desires. What else could happen in an episode we refer to as "Butterfly: The Alternate Cut".

Orphan number 2, come on down! Here's Crystal, of the once mentioned glasses! Super smort with actually nice adoptive parents? Maybe in the scant pages we have with Crystal, she won't find drama or catastrophe. Maybe there will be no tragedies or surprising twists. But whoomst are we kidding that that train of thought?

It's time to begin with a new series! These short bois are scant on pages, long on WTF. Here we meet Janet, AKA Butterfly for some reason. She do be an Orphan, she do be getting herself adopted, shenanigans do be going down, It's both less than and too much!
