It is getting annoying being reintroduced to the Baudelaires every time I read another book. However, seeing as it is in fact a children’s book it is quite pleasant and smart. 

By this book we are finally seeing more mysteries and being pulled into the story more because of V.F.D. I’m excited to see how it is all resolved.
