Book Review: The Reptile Room


Review:  #316
Title:  The Reptile Room
Series:  A Series of Unfortunate Events - 2nd book
Author:  Lemony Snicket
Read Before:  yes
My Comments:  The style of writing can get annoying at times, since the author loves wasting your time and fills up the book with rubbish like what words mean and gets sidetracked.  He mentioned before it happens, the death of someone again and again, once is okay, but not three or four times.  It’s the same with repeating the strength of each Baudelaire siblings.  It gets annoying really quickly, and you come to realise how stupid and unrealistic the plot is.  How the villain Count Olaf keeps getting away with the things that he does.  It seems that everyone is stupid in that universe, and every time the Baudelaire siblings will be ignored, it doesn’t even make sense now.
