This book is a good addition to the series. I like the Quagmire triplets - they definitely add a lot to the book and continuing story.

Never thought I'd like another character in this book but of course I did, only for them to be snatched away...

How are the adults in this book so cruel and oblivious? The vice principal was so annoying. I’d rather deal with the Miserable Mill than this Austere Academy- and that’s saying something!!!

I enjoyed this book- it wasn’t my favorite but it was interesting! I liked reading about the differences in the Baudelaire’s process to root out Count Olaf’s schemes. I also enjoyed that the orphans had some friends to relate to in this book- they were a welcome addition.
