A Series Of Unfortunate Events Book 3 Book Review 2024/03/31

After leaving the Reptile House and uncle Monty behind, the Baudelaire orphans travel to Lake Lachrymose, to a secluded house on the top of a perilous cliff; where they meet their new caretaker Aunt Josephine, a brave and fearless sweet old lady who loves grammar and is never afraid of anything, least of all realtors. A brief respite ensues, but not with much happiness; Captain Sham, a brand new nemesis, swiftly appears on their doorstep, and calamity strikes, yet again. No endearing beginnings this time, this third book goes almost straight from bleakness to tragedy. LIKED dear Aunt Josephine enough, but sadly, even with all her quirky traits and being a grammar obsessed person myself, she’s no Justice Strauss, or Monty material. Totally HATED Captain Sham, an utterly mischievous character, but civilized and charming, at least at the beginning, unlike the despicable Count Olaf of the first book, or the terrifying Stephano of the second, who were always mean from the start. Another nice addition to the series all around. The orphans still resourceful as ever, Violet with her inventions, Klaus with his intellect, and Sunny with her mighty biting.


I felt sorrowful for the Baudelaires, and the unfortunate events they have been through. All of their guardians and parents have died, thanks to a miserable, old, and mean guy, Count Olaf (The Snowman). As they traveled throughout the country, I wondered why Count Olaf (The Snowman) was so keen on torturing the Baudelaires. I wonder what will happen to Count Olaf (The Snowman) when it is, at last, over. Overall, it was a extremely fun and thrilling book!
