Series of Unfortunate Events: The Austere Academy and The Ersatz Elevator Book review:

Hi everyone sorry this post is a bit late I was going to do it on Monday like I usually do however I got stuck doing something so I focused on that. Anyway as you know if you read my blog every week (which fingers crossed you do) I have been reading the series of unfortunate events and I am on the 5th and 6th book. So I'll review the books like usual and I'll do some more author facts at the end of the post.

The Austere Academy:

I think this book has to be the weirdest one so far because the punishments the headmaster gives are just plain strange. For instance if you go to a certain building you get your silverware taken away at your meals. That might sound a bit weird however it gets worse. The building your not allowed in is the building where his office is so if a child has a problem and go to the headmaster office to tell him they wont get silverware.
   This may sound a bit strange to you but I would recommend it: At the end of the book it gives a author and illustrator and the description of Lemony Snicket always changes and is funny but yet again weird. Also, the blurb makes me laugh but you should read this before the book because it has little things you will find inside the book. And when you find them you will get that feeling when the title of the book makes sense.
   As always this book was a great follow up of the last one and I hope the next one will be as well.

The Ersatz Elevator:

This book was so good at the end I know I usually talk about the whole book and I promise I wont ruin it I just want to talk about the ending then I will get to the rest of the book. The last 30 pages of this really had me glued. More then any of the other books. In the book before it some of the Baudelaire's friends find out a secret however can't tell them it. I still want to know what the secret is however I haven't finished all the books. WARNING these books are addictive if you like them. If you want to borrow them at the libraby make sure they have all of them because you will be kicking yourself if they don't.
   Anyway this might mean nothing to you however I really want to know what the secret stands for and if you have already read the book I'm sure you know what I am talking about.

Now time for author facts this might be shorter then the other ones because I've already done quite o few facts about Lemony Snicket including his wife (Lisa Brown), his real name (Daniel Handler) and many more. So back to the facts. Daniel Handler has a son called Otto Handler. Sorry I couldn't find much about Otto Handler however you now know he is alive so yayyyy! I really can't find any more facts so I'm going to have to leave it there.

That's all for this post please go and read these books I absolutely love them. If you have any books you want me to read leave them in the comments and if you want me to do a certain blog post please comment as well thanks for reading and I'll see you next week.
