The Vile Village is the seventh installment in the thirteen-part Series of Unfortunate Events, following the three Baudelaire children as they search for their missing friends in their new home, the Village of Fowl Devotees. At the opening of the novel, the three Baudelaire children, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny, sitting in their lawyer's office waiting to hear their fate. They have recently escaped the clutches of their evil uncle, Count Olaf, and are searching for a new guardian. Since there are no longer any relatives willing to take the three children in and risk Count Olaf's wrath, the children's lawyer has decided to follow the aphorism, "It takes a village to raise a child," and place the Baudelaires in the custody of an entire community. The Baudelaire children know that the V.F.D. is somehow related to the whereabouts of their missing friends, the Quagmire triplets, and do not argue when they hear they will be sent there. I give this book five stars because it is funny but also mysterious.

this book is about a girl and her friend that lives next stoor. The friend leavs and nown she needes to find out what to do.

I gave this book a 4-star rating because I loved the life lesson but it was not the best I've read. I connect with the book because Helen and I both have an annoying younger brother. This book is about Penny, an adult with terrible habits. She just lost her job, AND her apartment. Her friend lets her borrow her storage area, where she lives now. But maybe she CAN become a responsible grown-up! She could find a job with good pay, find a cute boy (maybe that guy at the community center), and stop her terrible habits! Easy, right? Well, its not as hard as it seems. Will her plan work out? You'll have to read the book to find out!
