Is V.C. Andrews laughably horrible or horribly delicious?

I just picked up "Heaven," volume 1 in her Casteel series.

I realize that Andrew Neiderman has been continuing many of her series' titles, but the fact is that when V.C. Andrews was alive and well - and very popular - I didn't read her at all. I was aware of her reputation, since I worked in a bookstore.

In fact, I've never read anything by her whatsoever. I was intent on reading Stephen King and Brian Lumley (and I still do read them).

However, I now find myself starting to read "Heaven," - because I'm a maschochist for dubious writings - and find myself laughing when I should not be....is that bad?

This is all deliciously fun nonsense.

What's your take on her and on all those series she's written - even posthumously written - with the help of Neiderman.

Well, thar ye go. What's yore opin'in?
