About to continue the series. Excited but nervous as to what will happen to the Baudelaire children in this part of their unfortunate story x

Even though this series makes me laugh at some of the absurd things the 3 children do, I am thoroughly enjoying it. I feel myself getting so wound up at the things that keep going wrong for the children which just proves to me how good the author is. He has me hooked. Cannot wait to see where the story goes next x

4.75 stars. As an adult just over 30yrs and reading this series for the first time I am honestly speechless. I found this first book heart breaking, now whether it's worse because I am a mother to 4 young children or not I cannot say but I believe I would have been just as saddened reading this as a child. I can honestly see the appeal though as the story is brilliant. It's not a happy story but one that I'm itching to know what's going to happen.
