I hope, for your sake, that you have not chosen to read this book because you are in the mood for a pleasant experience. If this is the case, I advise you to put this book down instantaneously, because of all the books describing the unhappy lives of the Baudelaire orphans, The Miserable Mill might be the unhappiest yet. Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are sent to Paltryville to work in a lumber mill, and they find disaster and misfortune lurking behind every log. The pages of this book, I'm sorry to inform you, contain such unpleasantries as a giant pincher machine, a bad casserole, a man with a cloud of smoke where his head should be, a hypnotist, a terrible accident resulting in injury, and coupons. I have promised to write down the entire history of these three poor children, but you haven't, so if you prefer stories that are more heartwarming, please feel free to make another selection.

With all due respect,

Lemony Snicket

I love this book. Okay so if people were wondering what happens in these books here is a little summary. There are 3 Baudilares. Violet, Klaus, And Sunny. Count Olaf was their first new guardians since their parents died in and unfortuanete fire. And every new guardian they had Count Olaf would find them using a new disguise every time, just to get the fortune that was left behind by theyre parents. Oh yeah and each child has their own knowledge. Sunny the youngest bites any hard objects. Klaus the middle child reads all the time and read everything in their parents library until it turned to ashesso hes very smart and knows almost every definition to every word. And Violet the oldest is an inventor, you would know shes in her inventing mind when her hair was pulled up in a ribbon.
