octavia_cade 's review for:

The Reptile Room by Lemony Snicket
3.0

Fun light reading with a great deal of snark. It's at this point, though, that the formula for the series becomes clear, and that formula rests on Stupid Adults. Granted, some adults are very stupid indeed, but I can already see that it's soon going to become tiresome (how many times can Mr. Poe say "Of course that's not Count Olaf (or one of his highly identifiable associates)!", for instance, before one wishes to see him mown down by a tank? I suspect not many).
