Prompt 3 - vile

@TheSpineView

I love this series! 😃📚

#readingchallenge #books #reads #book #readerscommunity #challenge

I've read books 1-7 so far for my #anunfortunatereadathon but haven't posted anything. 🤦🏼‍♀️

I shared the first two books with the 10 year old girl across the hall. I left a post-it on their door asking if she enjoyed the first two and would like the next 5. This little lady will let me know! 🤣

Admittedly, I'm not very kid friendly, but this girl is delightfully weird, a reader, and her excitement about things is contagious.

I‘m enjoying this series…even if my son has lost interest. (Whomp whomp) ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Coming in under the wire with my #doublespin for January.

I think this book is the turning point of this series and is therefore one of my favorites. The Baudelaires are sent to be raised by an entire village that worships crows, they attempt to solve some poetry-related riddles to find the Quagmires, and when a supposed Count Olaf is captured things go from bad to worse.

Officially past the halfway mark! I finished The Vile Village this morning, and I‘m pretty sure it was the first time I read it! Not my favourite of the series, but still fun! Jumping straight into book 8, which I just read last year. Can‘t wait to get to book 10, as I‘ve never read past the 9th book in the series! ❤️💖

#JoyousJanuary #JumpStart2022

Had to put a pause on my Readathon, as we had another scare with our sweet Totem. After spending the whole day at the vet, we‘re hoping he‘s doing better. Still unsure as to the cause of his fever, so we‘re just taking it hour by hour right now. I think he‘ll bounce back, but please send some healing vibes to my sweet boy!

Sorry if I‘m not super active over the next few days, but happy reading! #Jumpstart2022

Okay, so I know these are technically crows but black creepy birds are all the same to me 🤷🏼‍♀️

Finished books 6 and 7 from the series of unfortunate events series today and these are my first 2 I‘ve read on audio narrated by Tim Curry which was a real treat. #BookSpinBingo

About to start The vile village. This book has the best cover art so far from the first 6 books Ive read.

Was the series that really got me into reading as a kid

I liked it

4.4.20: I sense answers may be coming..

It takes a village to raise a child, and several silly rules, according to this installment in a Series of Unfortunate Events.

While not my favorite book in this series, still worth reading. Will Count Olaf ever be stopped?

Sum: “It takes a village to raise a child,” and the Baudelaires are placed under custody of the whole community. The children of Baudelaire know that the V.F.D. is some way linked to the whereabouts of their missing friends, the triplets of Quagmire. They hope that they will uncover not only the whereabouts of their friends but also the safety of their uncle.

Genre: Gothic Fiction, Mystery, Absurdist Fiction.
Author: Lemony Snicket
Date Started: Friday, November 1, 2019
Date Finished: Friday, November 8, 2019
Why I Chose this book: A friend recommended it to me since they loved the series.

Book 37 of the year finished May 9, audio.

The Kids are sent to a village where the whole town is their guardian and they are slaves set to do all the chores. Yet another worthless custodian is set to care for them and fails to stand up for the kids when they need him to.

How exactly does Olaf think he'll get the money from them? Is he next in line to inherit? Why doesn't he just kill them? My suspension of belief is being pushed to its limits.

Thoroughly enjoying my reread of these books by the crappy human, Daniel Handler.

I swear it‘s for a school project. (And I may have sold my prof on introducing the series to his kids when I pitched it)

The general issue I have with Lemony Snicket books is that it‘s very explain-y. But it is meant to be a children‘s book series - right? - so it‘s completely understandable. Abandoned the book last year as well but reading it before continuing watching the Netflix series. Good book overall!

So excited to start the seventh book

Don't feel like killing yourself yet? Give this one a try.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

3 stars as usual for this series.

A village that burns people at the stake whenever they break a rule, how gruesome! I love how Count Olaf keeps coming up with these hilarious disguises, and how Sunny is making word puns every other page now that she's getting better at talking. This book gave some nice clues, but still really keeps you in the dark about VFD...

I didn't remember a thing about this book before I started reading, but this page just gave me intense deja vu of a dream I once had.

Relatable af! 😂 #stages #muchlove #booklifer

I've read over half the series in less than a month. AND that is with waiting on the holds coming in at the library and moving (in with my mother-in-law 😬). I picked up the next in the series today and the librarian gave me the judgy-est look I have ever received. #got99problemsbutabookaintone

Going in directions I never expected and getting more perilous and action-packed!

4⭐REREAD- while not my favorite story of the Bauldelaire's, still very enjoyable to reread. Still, for the life of me, I cannot remember how the series ends! Bits and pieces are vaguely there, but not enough to remember the grand finale. All I remember is my and my siblings' reaction to the end- all I know it's very unexpected and I wasn't very pleased with the ending as a 10 year old 😂

This is my second least favorite book. Mainly because I have so many questions and am annoyed by the complete lack of progress made in the story arc in this book. How does Olaf find them so quickly? Where is he getting his information from? Who is keeping him informed? Why does no one listen to the children when they tell them who Olaf really is?! What are the Baudelaire parents' names??

"Probably" and "I don't have anything else to do right now". Those are some airtight arguments right there.

My daughter and I have been reading this series together. I've been reading them aloud to her at night before bed, and finished #7, but now she's rushed ahead of me and has already read number 8 and 9 without me! These are great. A bit repetitive by now, but I love the dark humor and the way the siblings always stick together.

We have been enjoying the sunshine and Netflix binging instead of reading this weekend, but I did finish this audio last week while on my commute. I loved this story - even though the village was vile, the antics seemed particularly amusing in this book. The kittehs can't understand what's so bad about playing with feathered things - their favorite toys all have feathers! 😸😸😸#catsoflitsy #littenkittens

Finished this to kick off my #litsypartyofone this series really has me hooked. It funny that a children's series is so entertaining to an adult!

I splurged on the audiobook.

Starting the next book in the series. #litsyatoz #letterv

Still enjoying the series...I kinda said all I needed to say in the last two reviews though. There's nothing groundbreaking here but these are just fun to read. And I'm loving the Netflix series also.

Listening to this while attempting to clean my room and be somewhat productive for the day. I really like Hector - after Uncle Monty, he may be my favorite guardian! He's breaking all the rules in the best way! #RiotGrams #currentreads

#riotgrams #favoritevillain Gotta go with Count Olaf for this one. On a related topic I'm enjoying so far Neil Patrick Harris as Olaf in the new netflix series, although I'm only two episodes in

book one of the @24in48 #readathon done!

my @24in48 goal? finish up my LONG overdue reread of "a series of unfortunate events." what about you? #24in48 #readathon

The best book dedication. Ever.

This series is always a joy.

Though my least favourite book in the series so far, this story is amazing! Review will be in my wrap up which will be uploaded tomorrow on EllisReads on YouTube ✌️️
