Ce commentaire est de: A Series Of Unfortunate Events #11: The Grim Grotto (Hardcover)
In the eleventh book in "A Series of Unfortunate Events", we find the three young Baudelaire siblings in a grim bit of trouble, escaping from the nefarious Count Olaf by riding a toboggan down the Stricken Stream, hoping to find a sugar bowl before he does.

The Baudelaire siblings don't know what is so important about the sugar bowl, only that it may mean the end of their troubles.Unsure how to get out of the Stricken Stream without drowning, the three siblings contemplate their fate. Violet, the oldest of the Baudelaires, is the best inventor the world has ever seen; even she can't figure a way out of the mess they are in. Klaus, the second oldest, is as befuddled as his sister.

He hasn't read anything in any book that would help them escape a river. Sunny, the youngest Baudelaire, can just barely hang on for dear life.Their luck looks like it may be turning, however, when a submarine floats up from underneath them. Climbing aboard the sea vessel, they are introduced to Captain Widdershins and his stepdaughter Fiona.

They are part of the mysterious organization of V. F. D., and have been on the look out for the trio of Baudelaires. The papers have been blaming the trio for all of Count Olaf's devious deeds and Widdershins and Fiona were able to guess the Baudelaires' location.They are heading towards the last safe place, which they must reach before the V. F. D. meeting commences on Thursday. Count Olaf plans to commit another act of arson. They must also find the sugar bowl before Count Olaf, otherwise, the trouble has only begun....

From start to finish, I loved this book. I have been a huge fan of "A Series of Unfortunate Events" from its beginning and this is the best book yet. I'm not just saying that either. This book has everything: a little romance, a lot of adventure, evil villains who have perfected their evil laugh (Tee hee torture!), Tap Dancing Fairy Princess Ballerina Veterinarians, mechanical octopus and enough Ayes to shake a stick at.

I couldn't read this book fast enough. I sucked it back in just about a day and I'm going to read it again; it's that good. There are so many surprises in this book; there are moments where you will laugh out loud, feel sorry for the Baudelaires as we learn more about their past and learn a fair bit about the three stages of the water cycle. This book has something for everyone.

I can't stress how much I loved this book. Part Harry Potter, part Charles Dickens, these books rock!

I loved this book. I loved Klaus' ill-fated connection with the mysterious Fiona, the crisis with the mushrooms, and above all the last chapters, where the bigger mysteries of VFD finally begin coming together. The ending is probably the single best ending in the series...

I am now ready for book 12, which unfortunately I am getting only for Christmas. In the meantime a discovered a new very interesting series titled "Why some cats are rascals". Totally different story, but how captivating! I gave it for my younger sister as a Christmas gift.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Mystery Deepens
The Baudelaire orphans are back in another miserable story about their unhappy and desolate lives. The Grim Grotto continues to the story which has become progressively deeper... Lisez davantage
