Book Description
Dear Reader,
If you have just picked up this particular book, then it is not too late to put it back down. Like the previous books in A Series of Unfortunate Events, there is nothing to be found in these pages but misery, despair, and discomfort, and you still have time to choose something else to read.
Within the chapters of this story, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire encounter a darkened staircase, a red herring, some friends in a dire situation, three mysterious initials, a liar with an evil scheme, a secret passageway, and parsley soda.
I have sworn to write down these tales of the Baudelaire orphans so the general public will know each terrible thing that has happened to them, but if you decide to read something else instead, you will save yourself from a heapful of horror and woe.
With all due respect,
Lemony Snicket

It was great to read and watch as the lives of the three siblings went on. It was amazing that they were always driven away from a good life, but still survived out in the end.
One thing I'm disappointed in is that I never got to find out what was in the sugar bowl.
The Thirteen books of this series left several things open-ended, which is by no means bad. It just makes me madly curious.
I am satisfied with how the ending went, but I won't say anymore about it. You need to read it for yourself. =)
