The Reptile Room by Lemony Snicket

DID NOT FINISH: 34%

---

I've tried and I was actually liking this book until the narrator spoiled what will happen to Uncle Monty beforehand and see kids take yet another stupid decision. I get what the author is trying to do, though. It's reasonable to expect that the children would make mistakes and would to try to solve the problems themselves because they are the main characters of the story, not the adults. But still, the solution was right there.....

I also don't know why I was expecting to see another villain but learning it is Count Olaf again made me lose all interest and without Tim Curry voicing him, his character is too despicable to put up with. 

But again I have no business reading a children's book and doing anything more than appreciate it so this one is on me.
