Another miserable story in the Baudelaire lives...In this addition to the Series of Unfortunate Events Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are sent to Prufrock Preparatory School where they meet a handful of awful characters such as: Vice Principal Nero, Carmelita Spats, Mr. Remorta, Mrs. Bass, and Coach Genghis, who is really Count Oalf in disguise. But they also meet nice characters as Duncan and Isadora Quagmire who are also orphans who left behind a fortune when their home was burned down. Not only is the Baudelaire's new life at the boarding school extremely boring and the work tedious-a word which here means "extremely boring"-but the three orphans also have to take Coach Genghis- Count Oalf- S.O.R.E. programs where they spend the entire night running laps. With the help of Duncan and Isadora, the Baudelaires try to figure out what is the purpose of Count Oalf new plan while preparing for excruciating exams. With a crucial climax and tensious twists, i advise against reading this next chapter in the woeful lives of the Baudelaires.About 7 years agodemosthenes added a book review.
If i were you, i would not read this extension to the Series of Unfortunate Events. In this dreadful story, the Baudelaires are sent to live in a penthouse apartment with Jerome and Esme Squalor who have taken them in because orphans are in. Esme Squalor is to obsessed with what is in and what is out to take real care of the orphans and Jerome Squalor is to cowardly to argue with his wife or anyone. One would think living in a enormous penthouse would be grand, but with busy gurdians and trying to find their way through the maze of bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, sitting rooms, standing rooms, and all the rooms with no pupose, life began to be as horrendous as any of the Baudelaire's past experiences. Then, with the arrival of Count Oalf- now dressed as an auctioneer named Gunther-and the discovery of an ersatz-a word which here means "false, faux, of mock"- elevator, the orphans lives head down a downward spiral. Literally. During this huge mess Violet, Klaus, and Sunny learn more about their friends disappearance, the meaning of V.F.D., and the hidden secrets of the Baudelaire mansion. For your sake and mine DO NOT READ THIS BOOK!About 7 years agodemosthenes has read this book.
