Will have to find a new series of books soon, I'm almost done "The Dragon Riders of Per" Series only took a few months O.o;; once I got in to the books. Hehehe But if they are anything like harry potter eeehhh, have no urge to read thoes books. Like the movies though. |

I'm thinking of reading the books purely for entertainment. They're at a lower reading level than I am used to but Mr. Snicket seems to have a way of words I rather like.
I've only browsed the books thus far. He has a nice sharp sense of sarcasm/bitter humor which is rare in a children's series. The only thing that bothers me is that he has a tendency to be quite repetative. Still, I'll probably read a few of his books and I intend to see the movie.

Series of Unfortunate Events is NOTHING like Harry Potter. If you need a series to read... taht will take you a while... read Robert Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series. The first one is "Eye of the World" NONE of those book (there are 11 in the series so far I think...) are under 800 pages long. They are good. I made it to the 6th book... but I won't read any more until he finishes the series... ^.^ Um... you should also read Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar. I love those books. ^.^ The Wind's series is the best! |
