The Austere Academy by Lemony Snicket
4.0
adventurous dark fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I see we're now continuing the trend of extremely unlikeable adult figures in addition to the good ol' formula. It's extremely frustrating to read. Saving grace of this story is the introduction of the Quagmire siblings and the hints of a deeper overarching plot! Excited to see what exactly is in store.
