Summary: Lemony Snicket strikes again!
Review: Though this book was very anticipated, it doesn't meet certain expectations and in my opinion, not really the best of the series.I think Violet's inventions in this book weren't very fascinating as in the other books... or Klaus' researchings... and I didn't like the fact that Sunny and the elder Baudelaires were separated so much of the time. Definitely not one of the best... But still, it is Lemony Snicket. I read this book in a hour and my head was spinning after it. First someone the orphans hoped never to see again returns (No, it's not Count Olaf, though of course, he's still there.) Then a surprisng survivor of the fire... very shocking indeed. Additionally, 2 new VERY mysterious characters... and "the last safe place." SO MUCH of V.F.D's secrets are revealed in this book, but not all of them. If you haven't read the earlier books of the series, you really want to read THOSE first before this one. If you HAVE read the other books of the series, BUY THIS BOOK NOW! I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as I did. Okay, I'm ready for Book the Eleventh now. The mystery of V.F.D. is killing me.

Summary: Book 10
Review: I started reading the first book of the series, The Bad Beggining, a couple of months ago for a book report. It was wonderful and had me craving for more. So i bought the second book and told my best frien about it. He became hooked too. This book is one of the best in the series and I can not wait for #11. This series is better than Harry Potter.

Summary: A Slippery Slope, indeed!
Review: Book 10 of Lemony Snicket's Unfortunate Series opens with an homage to Robert Frost and then follows Klaus and Violet Baudelaire as they attempt to rescue their sister Sunny, who was separated from them by Count Olaf and his evil henchpeople at the end of Book Nine. They head up the Mortmain Mountains and encounter a frozen waterfall (the slippery slope in question). Along the way, they also encounter someone from the past who they hoped to never see again, someone who is a member of a rather annoying society of people who sing an irritating song using the letters of the alphabet. Yes, all of them! They also discover a shocking secret about one of the fires Count Olaf and his people started. Although not the answer they were hoping for, they are still pleased by this discovery. This leads them to attempt to unlock more secrets, which allows Klaus to use his literary skills and Violet her inventing prowess, a word which here means "talent". Sunny also becomes less baby-like in this book and is able to use her newly learned cooking skills. This book, like the others, is full of literary references, from a snippet of a poem by British poet Algernon Charles Swinburne to a very famous Leo Tolstoy novel that helps them open a secret door. The secret of V.F.D. is still not quite solved, but hopefully will be by the end of the series. I bought this book yesterday, the day it was released, and finished it in just under two hours. Like his other books, it is a quick but very satisfying read, and you won't get tired of reading it multiple times. It's hard to believe that the series is almost over (only 13 are planned), but they are books you'll never tire of reading. Buy this book and sink deeper into the abyss that is the Baudelaires' life.

Summary: The best yet!
Review: This, the tenth book in the "Series of Unfortunate Events," is possibly the best one yet. We actually do find out what (or the many things that) VFD stands for, and Sunny plays her best part yet. Of course, many other unfortuate events occur, but not without the dry wit and humor charactaristic of "Lemony Snicket." We also get to see the fate of one of the Quagmire Triplets. It took me about 2 hours to read, and I was perfectly riveted, a word which here means I couldn't put Mr. Snicket's historical account of the Baulidaire siblings down.

Summary: Voraciously Fascinating Dialogue!
Review: Lemony Snicket strikes again!
I must admit that The Slippery Slope exceeded my expectations by digging deeper into the mystery of VFD. I loved the plot twists, the emergence of a new and immediately likeable character, and the ingenuity of Sunny's remarks. "Busheney" was the greatest truth ever told...speak it, Sunny (and Daniel Handler)!
Overall, it's a great addition to the series. While the first few books might lag a bit in plot advancement, this one hurtles along like a toboggan down a waterfall and gives the most information yet, making it one of the best. I highly recommend reading it with a copy of Snicket's Unauthorized Autobiography handy.
If only we didn't have to wait another year for the eleventh book...

Summary: Possibly the best yet...
Review: As a big (read:adult) fan of the Lemony Snicket series, I got my book today and was eager to read how the children got out of their mountain predicament. I was very pleased with the plot of the book. We learned a couple of surprises about fire survivors, Sunny grew up a bit, Violet had a special moment... all around an excellent edition to the Baudelaire series. I can't wait for the next installment! By the way, if you go to the official Lemony Snicket website (www.lemonysnicket.com), you can play a word game that will give you an intriguing clue about the next book. Happy reading! Highly recommended for lovers of the series. If you haven't read the previous nine books, START FROM THE BEGINNING AND READ THEM IN ORDER!

Summary: Great Book!
Review: If you haven't bought this book yet, I suggest you buy it. It is the longest book yet (over 300 pages), but in this case, bigger is better. In this tenth sequel to one of the most popular book series out there, the Baudelaire kids reunite with old friends, and are seperated from Sunny by Count Olaf. Violet, Klaus, and their two friends have to find Sunny in the wilderness. Meanwhile, COunt Olaf and his troupe forces Sunny to commit to chores an average baby cannot do. And you might be quite surprise at what Sunny SAYS.
As usual, Snicket keeps you guessing at the end of every chapter. And even more suspensful, the note to the editor is even harder to read than past books, which you may or may not like. The book is a little slow-moving, but is well worth your money. Go out and buy this book that keeps you guessing from page 1 right now!
