I've never read the book and I'm planning to buy the books.

But I've watched the movie. It was great and I've learned a lesson on it.

That was the first series I ever finished! I LOVE those books, but I love Harry Potter more. I cried when I read the last one as well!

Hahah, exactly how I feel. Four or five years ago I read half the series then just gave up because there was nothing new in each book, the only thing that changed was Olaf's disguise and their location.

Oo I did! It's one of my favourite book series.. obviously not as good as Harry Potter though, and I doubt I'd read all 13 books again..

Also, I didn't really like the ending to the last book.. I won't spoil it for those who haven't read it though Smile

My sisters have the A Series of Unfortunate Events series. I've read one of them, can't remember the name of it, though. I do remember it was a great read, however!

there are 13.


I've read them all like 8 times each, I got really bored and read them twice over one summer a few years ago..... I don't know if I'll read them again. It's been like 2 years since I've read them now.


The movie was very disappionting, if you're going to make a book(or books) into a movie, at least follow the order of events as they are written.

There were only a couple of good things about the movie and they were few and far between. The beginning was hilarious!I thought the kids who played Klaus and Violet wee very good actors, it wasn't their fault that the script sucked. My advice to the people who haven't read them?Read the books, don't see the movie. I loved the books, but I was so sad when
Spoiler:

Kit died, and just after having her baby!But I really want to know what was in the sugar bowl!


I've read the Autobiography, but not the Beatrice Letters or Horseradish.

I read 1-6 (in German), and I own them all... I look forward to read the following books, but our library doesn't have them, so I have to buy them.

They're really interesting and the style is so unique!
