This book has a unique writing style that the Netflix show captures quite well. So much do that I hear the narrator's voice in my head when reading. 

I enjoy the way the Baudelaire's figure the plot while the adults are so unaware because of their adult assumptions. Count Olaf is a great villain, in part because no one expects him to be as vile as he is.
