The Hostile Hospital by Lemony Snicket

The Hostile Hospital (Series of Unfortunate Events, #8)

by Lemony Snicket

NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

The Baudelaires need a safe place to stay--somewhere far away from terrible villains and local police. A quiet refuge where misfortune never visits. Might Heimlich Hospital be just the place?

In Lemony Snicket's eighth ghastly installment in A Series of Unfortunate Events, I'm sorry to say that the Baudelaire orphans will spend time in a hospital where they risk encountering a misleading newspaper headline, unnecessary surgery, an intercom system, anesthesia, heart-shaped balloons, and some very startling news about a fire.

I’m glad Snicket’s continued to shake up the pattern of events in the book. The end of this one was the best cliffhanger yet.
