Synopsis

NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIESIn their most daring misadventure, the Baudelaire orphans are adopted by very, very rich people, whose penthouse apartment is located mysteriously close to the place where all their misfortune began. Even though their new home in the city is fancy, and the children are clever and charming, I'm sorry to say that still, the unlucky orphans will encounter more disaster and woe.In fact, in this sixth book in A Series of Unfortunate Events, the children will experience a darkened staircase, a red herring, an auction, parsley soda, some friends in a dire situation, a secret passageway, and pinstripe suits.Both literary and irreverent, hilarious and deftly crafted, A Series of Unfortunate Events offers an exquisitely dark comedy in the tradition of Edward Gorey and Roald Dahl. Lemon Snicket's uproariously unhappy books continue to win readers, despite all his warnings.

I'm slowly catching up with the reviews on ASoUE. Currently I'm reading book 12 of 13 to Celyn. The story formula is eroding by book 6 and some welcome variety / twists are introduced. More surreal adventure, more amusement for the adults in the translation of Sunny's bon mots. More skulduggery from C......more

OH HELL YEAH BABY. OH. HELL. YEAH. I love this series - which, in case you live under a rock or have been up to this point blessed enough to have a Goodreads feed untouched by my screaming, is my favorite in the world - for so many reasons. These reasons include: - the characters - the world - the languag......more

Goodreads review by Vanz on February 06, 2017

4.5 OMG OMG THIS KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER! I think this may be the best entry to the series as far as the first 6 books are concerned. A lot of revelations were revealed, especially with regards to the Quagmire twins. I knew there was something fishy going on with Esmé Squalor as soon as s......more
