NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES As the three Baudelaire orphans warily approach their new home Prufrock Preparatory School, they can't help but notice the enormous stone arch bearing the school's motto Memento Mori or "Remember you will die." This is not a cheerful greeting and certainly marks an inauspicious beginning to a very bleak story just as we have come to expect from Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, the deliciously morbid set of books that began with The Bad Beginning and only got worse. Review: My son is addicted to this series! - My 6th grade son is addicted to this series, he finishes each book in 2 day from how much he loves this series. This book is no different, he stayed up late just to read the book. Trust me, this is a great series. Review: Excellent Book Series - My kid loves these books. As a parent I have tried to instill the love of reading into my son and it has gotten easier overtime and we are reaping the benefits of the improved reading. Sometimes it was difficult to match the content level with his advanced reading level in addition to his interest in the content itself, however these books have seemed to be a perfect storm of sorts. He is 9 but reading at a 12th grade level and it wasn't until this series that we really saw a passion for reading show, he always liked it and did it daily but never sought it out as feverishly as he did with this series, he is sharing the story with us in addition to laughing and enjoying himself. I highly recommend them and we now own them all.

Good but....
This book is good but... It is odious what is going to happen next in this book, and everyone seems really dumb and the people are adopts to be smart are just normal. This is just a few things I didn't like and I do think you should read it, it is a really good book over all... And what am I complaining about I probably could not wright one half as good anyway. I hope you enjoy it!

An Addictive Series That's Not Unhealthy For You
I'm aiming to have all 13 hardcover books in my book collection. However, the prices in the retail bookstores were above my budget. Hence, when I saw the price on Amazon, I was astounded, but wary as it was cheaper than I thought. I managed to find a seller called thrift_books that I hoped was safe and reliable. The fifth book of ASOUE is one I always found as the start of a change for the Baudelaires as they meet new friends. I absolutely love the illustrations. The reason I want the hard covers is because the first page of each book has a different illustration of the children and Count Olaf. I can't wait to reread this entire series again!

Excellent, de qualitรฉ et accessible.
L'รฉdition Harper et Collins est vraiment bien faite, pour un prix abordable nous avons un livre de qualitรฉ, avec une belle couverture ainsi que des illustrations bien faites. Quand au rรฉcit, la qualitรฉ est toujours la mรชme, un anglais abordable, le retour (toujours) du comte Olaf, une nouvelle ambiance avec un institut scolaire. N'hรฉsitez pas.

Son loved it
Frankly, I thought it wasn't a patch on Roal Dahl, but my son loved it and that was all I was interested in.
