I don't know which one is sadder, losing someone nice you thought you'd live a happy life together, or being killed for nothing.

The author had warn us, yet still it's so tense. If I have to pick one character I dislike the most, it'll be Mr. Poe. And as an adult, I want to apologize on his behalf (lol).

We tend to ignore things we think trivial, turns out it's crucial. I hope Mr. Poe's behavior can be a reminder for me.

Try to see the bigger picture.

Being respected doesn't mean being treated first, and highly.

Being suspicious is not always wrong.

Listen to kids more. Sometime they know better than you.

Never lose your childish part. Keep the curiosity alive.

A reread but new to the format. 
Glad the book still holds up after all these years!!

Banger! Fun to see the orphans actually have fun. I can see how this series could get repetitive. So far I def like the other series better but the writing is still fun and I want to read the next one!!

3 stars. I definitely enjoyed this book a lot more than book one. It was funnier and the I really enjoyed the plot. However, there's just something about this series so far that I'm just not loving. They are fun, quick reads but nothing all that great. I hope they continue to get better as I read on and I find a point where I love it but for now they're fine. Nothing more.
