NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are intelligent children. They are charming, and resourceful, and have pleasant facial features. Unfortunately, they are exceptionally unlucky.
In the first two books alone, the three youngsters encounter a greedy and repulsive villain, itchy clothing, a disastrous fire, a plot to steal their fortune, a lumpy bed, a deadly serpent, a large brass reading lamp, a long knife, and a terrible odour.
In the tradition of great storytellers, from Dickens to Dahl, comes an exquisitely dark comedy that is both literary and irreverent, hilarious and deftly crafted. Never before has a tale of three likeable and unfortunate children been quite so enchanting, or quite so uproariously unhappy.

Impressions

    Ну так себе. В целом хорошо, но.
    Первая книга была хорошей, но вторая точно такая же, поэтому уже не очень интересна.
    При этом самые большие проблемы у сирот возникают исключительно из-за того, что они не могут рассказать ничего взрослым (никто не слушает детей), но постоянно всё рассказывают главному злодею.
    Такой сюжетный поворот настолько расстраивает меня, что читать книгу дальше становится крайне грустно.

Quotes

  • Louveteauhas quoted10 years ago
    It meant that even in the bleak circumstances of their current situation, even throughout the series of unfortunate events that would happen to them for the rest of their lives, Uncle Monty and his kindness would shine in their memories.

    For Beatrice— My love for you shall live forever. You, however, did not.

    It is remarkable that different people will have different thoughts when they look at the same thing
