THE HOSTILE HOPITAL - BY LEMONY SNICKET This is a book about the terrible journey the Baudelaire children are encourntering on their travels around the world trying to escape the nefarious Count Olaf. The plot is about the false story of the Baudelaire children murdering Count Olaf. Of course, three children couldn't murder a full grown man without some evidence, but, many people believe the story about them. Count Olaf had burned their house, killing their parents. After that dreadful day on Briny Beach, the children have been trying to escape Count Olaf in his ridiculous costumes. Here's the back....... Before you throw this dreadful book to the ground you should know what it's about. Unnessary surgery, an intercom system, anestesia, heart shaped ballons and some very startaling news about a fire. I really liked this book because it tells about the children's drealful stay at Hemlich Hospital. I recommend this book to all readers.


THE MISARABLE MILL- BY LEMONY SNICKET The Misarable Mill is part of wonderful, but terrifiying line of books. It tells in detail the story and history of the Bauldralire children. In this book the children are working in a mill. Read the book to find out what happens. I like this book because they always take little breaks and they give you a choice on what to think.

THE END BY LEMONY SNICKET
The end is the final book in the Series of unfortunate events. The children are traveling on the SAME boat as Count Olaf. Why you ask? Read the book to find out why. Anyways, they are shipwreacked in a storm and are landed on a coastel shelf. They find themselfs castaways on a secret island and one of the castaways, Friday, finds them and welcomes them to the island. Count Olaf? Not so much. Friday leaves him behind as they travel back to the island. She leaves Count Olaf behind because the island welcomes only nice people. Or so they say.... The rest of the castaways are out on something called a storm scavenge. When the island facilater meets them, they were put to work in catagorys they were not familer. Violet is good in inventing, put she was put to work in laundry. Klaus is good in reaserching, but he's put in being beside Ishamel (the island facilater) at all times. Putting clay on a 60 year old man's feet. Sunny is put to cook, which she likes, but was makking what she does not like to make. So, she was making simple meals and after, was laying away for the rest of the day. I liked this book because it descibes the every last details of the Bauldrelaire's adventure on this island very well, and has a little break every now and then. I reccomend this book to all types of readers. Not just kids, but adults too. Iron Guy Carl, I encourage you to read this book as well. I also like this book because the Baldralaire children have to suffer such harsh treatment as they learn.... Life's not fair. They step through every book just like they were real people.

DIVE BY GORDAN KORMAN
Dive is about four kids who are chosen to work at a very popular aqua- marine center. But the four kids belive that the guides are hiding something from them. What could it be? Rumors are that the center found truesure that was lost long ago. Is it true? Read the book to find out. I like this book because Dive keeps you in suspense. I also like this book because you have the option to belive the rumor, or not belive the rumor. It's your choice. I recommend this book to all people because it takes you on a jorney to dive into the sea of mystery, wonder and exploration. I personoly favor this book because it has such detail, and just, is amazing. Just as the book says. Dive into this book with a loved one or friend.

SCHOOL OF FEAR- BY GITTY DANESHVARI
The School Of Fear is a book about how for ordanary kids go to a school for intense fears. Lulu's fear are confined spaces. ( mine too.)Theo's fear is death, Madiline's fear is anything creepy and crawlie.Garrison's fear is water. I like this book because it's very spontaneous. And on every chapter, there is a type of phobia.

DAIRY OF A WIMPY KID BOOK 1 - BY JEFF KINNEY The Diary Of a Wimpy Kid series is all about a wimp named Greg. His best freind is a little..... unmature. Greg is someday gonna be a great superstar, but his mom bought him a diary. What movie super star has a diary? So, he's going to write this stuf in his jounal, and sell it when he's rich and famous. I like this book because he is so low down in the popularity list, and thinks he's gonna be a movi star of some sort. One more thing, good luck Greg!!!!!!!!
