The Reptile Room by Lemony Snicket

The Reptile Room (Series of Unfortunate Events, #2)

by Lemony Snicket

This story has a happy ending. No, wait, that was a different tape...Dear Customer, If you have picked up this sheet, you have probably not read the warning so clearly outlined in my prior message. This story may seem cheery at first, when the Baudelaire orphans spend time in the company of some interesting reptiles and a giddy uncle. But don't be fooled. The three siblings endure a car accident, a terrible odour, a deadly serpent, a long knife, a large brass reading lamp and the reappearance of a person they'd hoped never to see again. I have made a solemn vow to present this information to the public, but there is nothing stopping you from tearing up this paper and pretending you've never heard of this CD. Then you can sell something that is less unpleasant. With all due respect, Lemony Snicket

Another brilliant and cleverly written entertaining book in the Series of Unfortunate Events. The Baudelaire orphans find themselves in danger once again, as Count Olaf posing as Stephano seeks them out once again and attempts to haul them off to Peru in an attempt at getting his hand on their fortune.

Full review coming soon.
