Journal Entry 1 by JonniC from Birmingham, West Midlands United Kingdom on Wednesday, October 19, 2011
I have been trying to collect the whole series for a while. Some books were my own, and others I had read I borrowed from the library, therefore I had gaps in the series. But now I have them all and I'm prepared to send them all on a bookspiral. I have also read them all but I would also like to hear what others think of this series, and whether it is just for teenagers and younger or if adults and older can enjoy them too.

The Blurb (Back of the Book):
"Dear Reader,

You have undoubtedly picked up this book by mistake, so please put it down. Nobody in their right mind would read this particular book about the lives of Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire on purpose, because each dismal moment of their stay in the village of the V.F.D. has been faithfully and dreadfully recorded in these pages.
I can think of no single reason why anyone would want to open a book containing such upleasant matters as migrating crows, an angry mob, a newspaper headline, the arrest of innocent people, the Deluxe Cell, and some very strange hats.
It is my solemn and sacred occupation to research each detail of the Baudelaire children's lives and write them all down, but you may prefer to do some other solemn and sacred thing, such as reading another book instead.

With all due respect,
Lemony Snicket"

I actually really liked this, maybe because some of the Baudelaire's friends appear in this one, but I also like how this one is totally different to what others may expect, and it gets really exciting, I know I've only given it 8 stars, but that is quite high, and although there are better books in the series, this one is definitely one that releases a lot of important things.

I really LOVED reading this awful series of unfortunate events. The poor orphans have so many Unexpected twists and turns in their miserable lives, I just don't know how they have the courage to keep on facing them!

Thank you so much again for sharing these books JonniBoi!

I was totally suprised when I received this huge box full of Unfortunate Events yesterday! It will take some time to read all these as I have quite many books in my TBR-pile. We'll see which ones I can delay a bit (if I'm the last person in a ring/ray) so I could squeeze these between :)

Thanks for sending!

I sort of forgot these books as I kept those in the box where they arrived, but now I took this 7th book and read it in few days. This was a really sad part of the story, although much didn't seem to happen. But I also was very proud of Sunny, it's a great thing she has learned to walk! :)
