Read this one when I was little, so a huge part of it I couldn't remember very clearly any more. I love Snicket's style, and I feel the explanation of meanings of words is becoming a running joke. Really looking forward to rereading the next part of the series, The Wide Window, which was one of my f...

Again -- "reading" in the sense that my son and I are delighting in Tim Curry reading this to us. (Sadly, Mr. Curry is not in the habit of stopping by, so we've had to content ourselves with a recording.)

I love these books! Lemony Snicket's writing is just lovely and still enjoyable though I am not the intended target audience. Can't wait to read the whole series.

Example shows that people generally enjoy formulaic plots—James Bond, most cop dramas, most medical dramas, mystery novels, et cetera.

Then I would have just powered through it.As it is, I've been trying to pick them up, but I don't have them all in order, and I'm not SO thrilled with them that I feel motivated to...

For anyone who isn't familiar with Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, it's a 13 part children's book series that follows the lives of the three Baudelaire children, Violet, Klaus and Sunny after their parents perish in a fire that destroyed their family home. Cheerful right? Honestly, ...

Dark, funny, and entertaining. Altough, some of the situations the children are "stuck" in aren't really all that sticky if you stop and think about them for a moment.

Oh, I love Lemony Snicket. I love the Baudelaire orphans, I loved Uncle Monty and I might even love Count Olaf (a bit, from time to time, because he's part of these stories).It is a sad, depressing, senseless, upsetting story about the bad things that can unfortunately happen in this world, meaning:...
