Title: "Shouldn't You Be in School?"
Series: All the Wrong Questions - 3rd book
Author: Lemony Snicket
Read Before: no
Comments: "Shouldn't You Be in School?" is the best book in the series yet, as it is not as pointless or babbles as much. It presents an interesting mystery where the villain Hangfire is at it again with another plot. While it is confusing in the beginning, it starts to take form before too long, and with the reappearance of previous characters, it makes for an engaging read especially towards the climax where Snicket actions his plan. True to the author's form, after finishing the book, you realize that he did not reveal much at all, leaving way more questions than answers and this remains frustrating. It leaves a tantalizing effect just out of reach. There were times where the novel presents big blocks of text that adds nothing to the story, only serving to add to the word count. Overall, this has a better story hidden in there than you would expect.
Rating: 6/10
