Poison For Breakfast is a very interesting, surprisingly funny, philosophical-as-advertised story. it purports to tell the true tale of what happened the day the author found a note saying "You had poison for breakfast", and it's very believable, until you remember that Lemony Snicket is not just a pseudonym but also a character in A Series Of Unfortunate Events. but Poison For Breakfast did manage to remind me what I like about philosophy ... which is honestly pretty hard to describe, and there's a cat demanding my attention, so, thanks for reading! check this book out!
