Uncle Monty forever.

The Reptile Room

By Lemony Snicket

So as I've said before A Series of Unfortunate Events are some of my favourite ever books, and The Reptile Room is definitely one of the best books in the series. 

It shows Violet, Klaus, and Sunny move into a new house to live with their Uncle Monty, who is a world expert in reptiles. It's brilliant. They start to feel at home, begin to feel happy again and then, obviously, Count Olaf comes along and ruin it. 

I always feel so happy that they've finally found a nice relative to live with and they're feeling happy and a part of me just wants that to be it for the series. They just stay with Uncle Monty and everything's fine, but then I carry on reading and the sadness sets in. Stupid Count Olaf ruining everything. 

I really am enjoying re-reading this series (even if it has been slightly put off so that I can re-read City of Bones before the movie comes out).

The Best Beginning...

A Series of Unfortunate Events is easily one of my favourite book series, so the other day I figured I would start reading them again. 

As soon as I opened The Bad Beginning I remembered how it felt when I first read and fell in love with the series. The writing, imagery, characters are all just so brilliant that I never want to stop reading.

I can't believe I waited so long before starting to re-read such an amazing series. 

So if you have a series that you love that you haven't read in a while, please GO BACK AND READ IT. 

It's like going back to your childhood all over again. :)
