Forgettable


This book isn't bad. It's dull in some parts, a bit exciting in others. The only thing is that it is somewhat forgettable. It could have been a much shorter book, or could have even been packed into the end of The Slippery Slope. Not much is discovered in "The Grim Grotto" and it is a bit sad that this is the third to last book in this Series of Unfortunate Events.

Violet, Klause, and Sunny enter a submarine with a man with annoying speech habits, a girl whose character changes too dramatically too soon to make any sense, and Phil from "The Miserable Mill" which was a pleasant surprise. Count Olaf's new laugh, which he displays on numerous accounts, is annoying, but I must say that the last chapter of this book, in which the Baudelaire's return to Briny Beach, is quite good.

I recommend this book because obviously I support the series, but it is not one of the better of the twelve released so far.

6/10

Oh how utterly grim from the Baudelaires

The Grim Grotto, Book the eleventh in the Unfortunate Events series, picks up where book the tenth left off. At the start, the Baudelaire childrens are floating down Stricken stream on a toboggan when a periscope suddenly comes out of the water. The Baudelaire children are unsure whether the people inside the submarine can be trusted, but you know how that goes if you've already read the previous 10 volumes. So on this adventure it begins with a submarine and continues through encounters with deadly mushrooms, tap-dancing, a message from a lost friend, betrayal, and eventually a dark undersea cave.
