A Series of Unfortunate Events #5-9

Rate this book
NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

Don’t be fooled by the new, Netflix-inspired book covers of the second five books in this New York Times bestselling series.

The events recounted in this five-book box set (which includes The Austere Academy, The Ersatz Elevator, The Vile Village, The Hostile Hospital, and The Carnivorous Carnival) are sure to depress you. If you cannot stomach stories that find misfortune continuously befalling the three charming Baudelaire orphans, I recommend you make another reading selection.

Some boxes should never be opened.

It was pretty good. So what happens is they meet these other orphans but their triplets, not twins which is a great mistake because one of them died. And those triplets help them for most of the book, by spying on them to make sure they were going to be ok and they also helped them pass an exam another piece is that the triplets were robbed by Count Olaf and some two other people.

See I'm reading this for the first time as a 23-year old. My opinions aren't really valid. I can definitely see how these are great when you're a child. :)

Very addictive...must be the emo within that got complled to keep going. Can be dreary, but you long so much for a happy ending or something that at least answers all the questions and mysterious that grow with each book.
