The Wide Window: A Series of Unfortunate Events #3

I was impressed when reading this book realizing that Count Olaf liked eyes Uncle Monty liked snakes and Aunt Josephine liked being safe. And I have to say the whole ever, ever, ever, ever thing was kind of funny!

A close friend of mine Ient her box set of this series to her sister who then returned it with this book missing. I purchased a used copy, wrote a short note telling her to enjoy her reading and the other wonderful parts of life, and then I snuck it into her collection without her noticing. It's been there for over a month now, and she still hasn't noticed it. I'm beginning to think she never will, as I've dropped hints and brought up the "missing" book multiple times, and I think she's recognized that the book is not missing, but not that it had been replaced. This is bothersome because she's one of the most beautiful and worthwhile people I know, and I was hoping that continuing a friendship through reciprocal acts of kindness would eventually lead her to fall in love with me. It didn't seem too far fetched, as we have kissed several times, and I've been told I'm at least a decent-looking guy. But she hasn't noticed this book, and she just met some dude on tinder who is probably taller than I am (or more masculine etc.) My apologies, jealousy is as inevitable as it is unbecoming. This has coincided with the apparent waning of the frequency and quality of our communication (which used to be great), to the point where she recently did not even wish me a happy birthday. I guess it's my fault for having the expectation she'd remember in lue of me not having a Facebook. But, I'm afraid it's time to own up to these realities and accept that this book is just as unnoticible as I am. Anyway I'm 23 now, and old enough to get over a woman, even the most admirable of them. This book was exactly as described and in the expected condition. If I purchase any more novels in an effort to woo potential beauties, I intend to be more forthright. If you are purchasing for a similar purpose, may your romantic endeavours amount to more than a series of unfortunate events.

This was a great book for my son who is addicted to this series and loved this book, he did say that this was not as nice as book 1 and 2 but he said he loved this book.

I loved all of these books as a kid and also reread them as an adult! Such good stories.

This author is great. My girls love listening to this story. I really captures the imagination of children. I watched the movie before I read books. The movie was very adult geared so I was nervous about the childrens books. They aren't creepy like the movie but really done tastefully and very child like. Great book.

Very great book about three youngsters experiencing misery and woe 🙃

I chose this rating because the is described very well. There is always a bit of humor and this is just...very...different then most books I would pick out to read. The author of this book always test to really make it come to life and when I read it I just felt like you know how the orphans feel but you really don't. I loved this book and I am excited to read the rest of the series. You really should read this book.

I was so excited for this book to arrive. I was a bit disappointed when a barcode sticker was placed on the book spine. No matter how gently I tried to remove it, at last, the sticker took part of the text with it. Please place the barcode sticker anywhere else on the hard cover or back of the book, where it would be much easier to remove with no damage to the book. After reading, I was planning to use for decorative purposes and sadly, this one will stand out from the rest. Other than that, I can’t wait to read this book with my kids.
