Series of Unfortunate Events

Unfortunate Events is about three Children who become orphans when their parents mysteriously die in a fire. Mr Poe ( the person who chooses where the children live) chooses a man called Count Olaf who turns out to just want the Children's fortune and will go at any lenghts to get it. When the children finally convince Mr Poe about the Count's evil scheme he tries to move them as far away from Count Olaf but the Count always finds them.

I like this book because the author (Lemoney Snicket) writes as though he is actually talking to you and explains words you might not understand. It is a thrilling story with unique adventures you have alongside the characters.
