so-soAll the classic Snicket tropes, such as excessive definition of vocabulary words, wrapped around a pseudo-biographical story of his unusual apprenticeship. I particularly appreciated the literary allusions he offers as tips, such as the one to Danny, Champion of the World by Roald Dahl above.

How did you choose this book: This book was given to me by my grandma when she came to visit my relatives in Canada. It was always sitting on my shelves so I thought I'd try reading it.
pickThis series was very enjoyable to read! Lemony Snicket is just a delight to read. These books are on par with A Series of Unfortunate Events and even explore elements of the human condition that are not explored in that series.
so-soI read this book because I liked the cover art. Nice start to the series and a bit of a lead into the next volume. #24in48
I'm starting this series just because I love the cover. Is that wrong? 💁🏻 #dontjudgeme #24in48
pickThe first book in the #allthewrongquestions #series. #Snicket is assigned to retrieve the #BombinatingBeast statue and return it to the rightful owner. Thus, the adventure begins with interesting twists, colourful characters with #peculiar names.

pickFun, fast, and mysterious read. It is not necessary to have read A Series of Unfortunate Events but characters from it do pop up or are mentioned.
This Lord of the Rings reference made me LOL! #snarkysnicket
I'm going to #Bookcon in NYC this June and Lemony Snicket among will be there, so I decided to start my #springcleaningreadathon with an audiobook of his work:
There's something perfectly comforting about reading something which is A) new to you from someone you read as a child, and B) touches on many of the frustrations you're currently experiencing in your own life. This is a book which found me at precisely the right time.
Cool bookends for today's #RiotGrams challenge. The bookends were a gift from a pal - they're 3D printed!
#riotgrams #bookmark Hours for my local library. I always grab a new one when I take a book out. #librarylove
#riotgrams book and treats. Some chocolate hearts and Lemony Snicket.
Library haul!!! I know one isn't a book, but it's about books!
“There's an easy method for finding someone when you hear them scream. First get a clean sheet of paper and a sharp pencil. Then sketch out nine rows of fourteen squares each. Then throw the piece of paper away and find whoever is screaming so you can help them. It is no time to fiddle with paper.”
― Lemony Snicket, Who Could That Be at This Hour?😂
I love this series! This isn't my all time favourite blurb but it does catch Lemony Snicket's signature quirkiness... #bestblurb #seasonsreadings2016
pickPretty excited that this book is as grim and weighed down by tragedy as A Series of Unfortunate Events, but even worse! It's what you'd expect from Snicket narrating his own life.
Never the same bio twice ❤️
Found this at an op shop last weekend - now I'm just one book away from a complete set ☺️
Speaking of Lemony Snicket! I am still in the mood for a breezy change of pace. Not... not that I'm expecting Snicket to be especially breezy...
pickIntriguing, clever, metaphorical, dubious, and mysterious. Fans of Lemony Snicket's other works will love it. In true Lemony Snicket fashion I now have more questions than answers, and in true Lemony Snicket fashion I doubt any of those questions will be answered. Regardless, I'll keep reading!
