Utterly shocked and flabbergasted at the fact that these children have now witnessed a woman being cut in half by a giant saw blade, right after she'd dueled and tried to slice the throat of our Sunny, who is *checks notes* one year old.

This was awful I'm so mad! There wasn't a single silver lining or a moment of comfort anywhere in this book, it was all bleak bleak. Lemony Snickett warned you yadda yadda I don't care! I'm sad for my children!!

Although now we've stepped away from the well-meaning, but hopelessly incompetent guardians the kids have been entrusted to so far, I absolutely loathed seeing them join the workforce and I hated Sir and Charles was just annoying. Phil was okay-ish, though. And say whatever you want, but Olaf and his cronies are nothing if not versatile. Shirley was a hoot, I'll miss you girl you'd make a terrible receptionist xoxo.
