4 STARS!!! 
 Aunt Josephine is the definition of a whack job. I think Meryl Streep portrayed her PERFECTLY in the movie and I had fun imagining her as Aunt Josephine in the book. It was awesome. Mr. Poe is still a dumb ass and I'm waiting for Violet or Klaus to pop off at him soon. I want one of them to scream their head off at him just once because he is just UGHHH!!! Count Olaf is such an asshole, I really want the children to turn the tables and come up with plan to exact some Kill Bill revenge on his ass and get rid of him but the series goes onto 13 books so I guess we'll see how it pans out. 
 I have a thing for lakes and fishermen type things because my grandpa was incredibly into fishing and loved lakes immensely so I had a lot of fun reading this one. :) 
 I read the first 3 with the movie in mind and now I'm starting the fourth and it's going to be interesting to see how I imagine everything in my head since it wasn't adapted in the movie. I'll still imagine Violet, Klaus, Sunny, Mr. Poe, and Count Olaf as the actors who portrayed them in the film though because I think they pulled off the characters amazingly and I don't think anyone, not even the Netflix series could top them. 
 Now on to The Miserable Mill!
