    • While I read this book it was through a haze. I don't remember taking in the book, by the time I finished the book, I had not clearly gotten an idea of what happen. I some what stopped liking the series before I read it and maybe because of that, I didn't pay attention to it.

    • Ci ho messo un sacco a finire questo libro, e sinceramente il mio entusiasmo già fiacco nei confronti della serie si sta affievolendo sempre più. Comincio a non capirci più nulla con tutti questi indizi-finti indizi... bah, staremo a vedere!

    • I was expecting to like the underwater book a little more, but felt that the setting was lacking a little. I really did enjoy the new character of Klaus' girlfriend who ended up joining the bad guys.

      This was always my least favourite of the books, and I don't think that opinion has changed with a second reading. It's not that it's a bad book or that the story isn't interesting; it's that the repetition issue is utterly overwhelming in this book. I want to slap Captain Widdershins everytime he opens his mouth. I want to punch Lemony Snicket/Daniel Handler every time he mentions the water cycle. If the repetitious bits were removed, I'm quite sure the book would be 20 pages shorter, and a much better book for it.

      Still, I think this book does a lot to remind the reader just how much you don't know about what is going on, and just how much you want to know. There are no answers here, but it makes you want to push onward to find the answers.

Book Description

Dear Reader,

Unless you are a slug, a sea anemone, or mildew, you probably prefer not to be damp. You might also prefer not to read this book, in which the Baudelaire siblings encounter an unpleasant amount of dampness as they descend into the depths of despair, underwater.

In fact, the horrors they encounter are too numerous to list, and you wouldn't want me even to mention the worst of it, which includes mushrooms, a desperate search for something lost, a mechanical monster, a distressing message from a lost friend, and tap dancing.

As a dedicated author who has pledged to keep recording the depressing story of the Baudelaires, I must continue to delve deep into the cavernous depths of the orphans' lives. You, on the other hand, may delve into some happier book in order to keep your eyes and your spirits from being dampened.

With all due respect,
Lemony Snicket
