File Under: 13 Suspicious Incidents by Lemony Snicket

File Under: 13 Suspicious Incidents by Lemony Snicket
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lately, I just can't get enough Snicket!

I enjoyed this interjection into the All the Wrong Questions series. This is a collection of 13 short mysteries that Snicket solves while working on his "big investigation" in the town of Stain'd by the Sea. In addition to many of the regular characters and Snicket associates readers know from the series, many new strange and suspicious characters from the seemingly lifeless town are introduced in these stories.

Filled with all the quirky humour and excellent quotable quotes I've come to expect from Lemony in this series. I totally loved it!

Highly recommended!

"When Did You See Her Last?" (All the Wrong Questions #2) by Lemony Snicket

When Did You See Her Last? by Lemony Snicket
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just finished the second installment in the All the Wrong Questions series by Lemony Snicket. I absolutely enjoyed it! Snicket has a way of weaving words into a weird and twisted, yet colorful and wonderful way. I can't help but enjoy reading his work and there are mountains of great quotes in this book, "When Did You See Her Last?". One of my favorites is "a library tends to look like the problem you're using it to solve . . .[Here] the books and shelves seemed to be in the middle of an argument nobody was winning."
This time, Snicket (the character) is trying to solve another mystery without the help of his chaperone or the police - they're all busy with other things. He reunites for some of his associates from the first book to solve the case of a missing chemist. Moxie, Pip and Squeak, and even Ellington Feint show up to assist Lemony with the task. He also creates some new associates including Jake Hix, a short order cook who has some kind of connection with the missing chemist. Will Lemony ask the right questions to figure out the connection? Will he ask the right questions to find the missing chemist? What IS going on with Lemony Snicker's sister? Does he get the message, find the formula, or figure out what's for breakfast? Well, if you've read the first book you know he has a problem. It's asking all the wrong questions.

Highly recommended, but read the series in order.
