  <default_description>Dear Reader,

Unless you are a slug, a sea anemone, or mildew, you probably prefer not to be damp. You might also prefer not to read this book, in which the Baudelaire siblings encounter an unpleasant amount of dampness as they descend into the depths of despair, underwater.

In fact, the horrors they encounter are too numerous to list, and you wouldn't want me even to mention the worst of it, which includes mushrooms, a desperate search for something lost, a mechanical monster, a distressing message from a lost friend, and tap dancing.

As a dedicated author who has pledged to keep recording the depressing story of the Baudelaires, I must continue to delve deep into the cavernous depths of the orphans' lives. You, on the other hand, may delve into some happier book in order to keep your eyes and your spirits from being dampened.

With all due respect, 
Lemony Snicket &lt;i&gt;LemonySnicket.Com&lt;/i&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[The repetitiveness of Captain Widdershins and his &quot;Ayes!&quot; and all that water cycle talk (though intended to bore one to death) kind of made me honestly want to stop reading. Was ready for this one to be over about a quarter of the way through. The Medusa Mycellium/Sunny's phlight was good ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/78046066">more...</a>]]></body>

Everytime I see the cover of this book that is all I can think about. *shudders* I think the ocean is such a metaphor here too.

    <body><![CDATA[I decided to read this book after the movie came out and was very disappointed. The books are written for little kids. When I say that I mean like 2nd or 3rd grade. The books are very small (for their small hands), and there aren't very many words on the pages.

    <body><![CDATA[The Grim Grotto had a deep complex adventure with excitement, for the dead. The book had to much talking and I could barely get through the first chapter.
