The Bad Beginning

4.0

This was such a quick read! It only took me like more or less an hour to finish this. Actually, I remember reading this book in my Elementary school's library before, and re-reading it made me realize how intriguing this book is. It's a good book to start off the ASoUE series and it doesn't disappoint at all. The Baudelaire siblings were introduced and you can't help but immediately sympathize with them. Count Olaf left a really convincing impression as a villain. The story/plot teaches a lot of valuable things from real life skills, to grammar & vocabulary. I am pretty much looking forward to reading the next 12 books of this series. In fact, I'm about to start the 2nd book of this series - which is “The Reptile Room”.
