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

  • Very exciting, depressing, but at the same time very attractive as a book! I want to get book 5 and read all about the Baudelaires now!

  • I greatly enjoyed this instalment. It was nice to see it follow a slightly different path than the first three. As always dark, hilarious and beautifully written.

  • This should be rated somewhere between "Quite Good" and "So-so." It's certainly not my favourite of the books, but it's not exactly so-so either.

    This should be rated somewhere between "Quite Good" and "So-so." It's certainly not my favourite of the books, but it's not exactly so-so either.

    I think what I dislike about it is that the sense of ridiculous (which is high in all these books) grows to outlandish proportions. For whatever reason I'm less bothered by a baby that can open tins with her teeth than I am by a baby that uses her teeth to duel with a sword-wielding baddie, as Sunny does in this book.
