These books are okay if you were a fan of the first one, but if you've read one, you've pretty much got the gist for the series: many bad things will happen, the children will soldier on, and Olaf is a slimy bad guy. I'm mixed about the exposure to new vocabulary. On one hand, it's great that people learn new turns to language and new words; on the other hand, the definitions in these books are often incomplete and humorously narrow, and students get absolutely no practice in figuring out word...more
Hostile Hospital: I'm not kdding, it keeps getting better! More questions about the links between Olaf, the children, and Snicket have me on the edge of my seat! I was impressed with this installment which did not contain the intro to a new guardian, but the children on their own.

OK, I know that this is the Series of UNFORTUNATE events, but as the series progresses, they seem to end even less happy than the last. I still enjoyed Snicket's humor. I also love the many creative ways he incorporates a library into the children's adventures. CC was too sad for me.
ok so what's the deal? why is there jsut random individual books and then just groups??? anyway....book 7....book 8....individual review...book 9.....love them carnival folk....
I stoped somewhere around 7-9 I couldn't take it anymore! Just to sad for me never anything good happening!!!
See, now its really boring, yes you find out a lot of interesting info but once again its repetitive now
The Carnivorous Carnival, book 9, sucks!!!!
Snickety greatness.
