Why read it?

1 author picked The Slippery Slope as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events has been my go-to for reading this year.

I thoroughly enjoy his humorous tone, but I also feel the frustration of tragedy the main characters, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire, endure. My favorite in the series so far is The Slippery Slope. I didn’t want to put the book down as the riveting plot takes you to the Mortmain Mountains, where Violet and Klaus must rescue their sister.

I have younger siblings, two brothers and a sister, who I’ve had many adventures with as we’ve grown up into our teenage years.

If you love The Slippery Slope...
