libralita 's review for:

The Slippery Slope by Lemony Snicket
5.0

No, not Carmelita Spats, I hate her so much. She’s so annoying…ugh!

“If you have ever been a student, then you know that there is usually one such person at every school and that once you have graduated you hope never to see them again.”—page 69

Oh yeah.

Can we push Carmelita off the cliff?

Snicket’s letter to his sister in the middle of chapter 5 was really funny for some reason.

Quigley Quagmire! Which I kind of spoiled for myself because I was flipping through the book to see the chapter pictures because sometimes they’re really pretty and I kept on seeing his name. Ah, well, a good twist, though.

MONTY’S HOUSE BEEN BURNED DOWN?! DAMN YOU!

Young people would be less likely complain? Olaf, you obviously don’t know young people.

D’awww Quigley and Violet, how cute.

“Sunny dropped her vegetables on the ground and walked over to her sister and smiled. ‘I’m not a baby,’ Sunny said, and hugged her.”—page 227

Aw! Sunny really has grown up…

So they’ve been trained to become volunteers?

Esme Squalor is the original girl on fire.

“Violet and Quigley looked up to see what he was referring to, and saw four tiny words etched over their heads, right underneath the large letters spelling ‘V.F.D. Library.’
‘‘The world is quite here,’’”—page 269

Isn’t that five?

“‘Of course,’ Esme said with a nervous snicker. ‘We’ll have the Spats fortune, the Kornbluth fortune…’”—page 297

Spats? Kornbluth? Wait…if you kill Carmelita Spats…eh, I’m okay with that.

ALL ADULTS IN THIS UNIVERSE ARE A BUNCH OF IDIOTS!

The whit faced women just walked away! That’s beautiful but hey, WHY DON’T YOU HELP THE FOUR HELPLESS CHILDREN?!

Can Carmelita Spats like…die? Right now.

QUIGLEY!
