alyshadeshae 's review for:
The Bad Beginning
by Lemony Snicket
My full review is here on my personal website. I'll post a few excerpts here, though:
3.0 out of 5.0 stars
The very worst thing about this book is the constant defining of “big” words. At first, I really liked the fact the Snicket (Daniel Handler) defined certain words, it very quickly began to wear on my nerves. It began to feel as though he was including a definition to pad the word/page count instead of to add anything meaningful to the story.
The very best thing about this book is all the creepy and evil things that happen. I also like how everything ties back to Count Olaf; although, as the series progresses, this too gets tiresome.
