The Reptile Room by Lemony Snicket


Title: The Reptile Room
Author: Lemony Snicket
Stars: 5
Description: Within the pages you now hold in your hands, the three siblings endure a car accident, a terrible odor, a deadly serpent, a long knife, a large brass reading lamp, and the reappearance of a person they'd hoped never to see again. I am bound to record these tragic events, but you are free to put this book back on the shelf and seek something lighter.
After everything they went through in the first book, it starts to get better then worse. First the Baudelaire's parents died a in a fire they burned down their mansion and they are taken into Count Olaf's care. Count Olaf is a horrible man that wants to steal the Baudelaire's fortune.
But when the Baudelaire's are taken into Uncle Monty's care things start to get a lot better. Uncle Monty is really nice and is not at all cruel like Count Olaf. But soon Count Olaf is back trying to ruin their lives again.
5 stars!
Natalie
