My Top Ten Books: #6

My Top Ten Books is a series of short book reviews. I will post every two days.

The next book on my list is a series of four books written by Lemony Snicket. 

All the Wrong Questions.

When you hear the name Lemony Snicket you probably think of his first series, 

A Series of Unfortunate Events. That is his more popular series. While I haven't been “fortunate” enough to read that series, I have read his latest series. All the Wrong Questions.

It starts in a big city at a train station. Lemony Snicket, the main character, (yes the author used his own name for the main character) is with his parents and he receives a note. He opens it and it tells him to meet up in an alley. He finds the alley and his new chauffeur (he works for a sort of investigation group). She tells him that they will be driving to a small town called Stain'd by the Sea. She also tells him her name, Theodora S. Markson. And as any good 13 year old would, he asks what the S stands for and she gives him a sly answer. Of course not telling him what it really means. This becomes an ongoing “joke” throughout the whole series.

So after arriving there and not getting a very good first impression of the place, they get news of a stolen item. The stolen item is called the bombinating beast. It is a creepy looking statue of a seahorse. So they start sniffing the trail of the beast. And thus the story is set up for you. But will they find the beast. And if they do, what will it lead to?

Do you like mystery books? Do you like fiction? Do you like missing people, burned buildings or spooky writing? Did you answer yes to any of these questions? If so, this is the series you have been looking for! When I first heard about this book I was very intrigued by it. And by the time I had finished number three, Snicket hadn't even written the final book! But the books kept me wanting

more. So when the fourth book finally came out I was super exited to finally read the last one! So give this series a try. And if you like this one maybe you should try his first series. A Series of Unfortunate Events.
