Lemony Snicket's second book in this series is somehow better than the first. Maybe it's because I had a better idea of what to expect in terms of the narration? Maybe it's because I was already somewhat familiar with most of the characters? Or maybe I just came into this book with a less anxious mindset than when I read the first ([b:Who Could That Be at This Hour|13477819|Who Could That Be At This Hour? (All The Wrong Questions, #1)|Lemony Snicket|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1333060600s/13477819.jpg|19008874])? Who knows. But I enjoyed it for the same reasons I enjoy Snicket's other books: His snarky style and his ability to tell a great story without giving you all/most of the details.

“Of course you can trust me, we read the same books.”

Lemony Snicket, you son of a bitch- you’ve done it again. I CAN’T GO TO THE LIBRARY FOR A FEW DAYS SO I WILL BE WAITING IN ANTICIPATION TO READ THE NEXT ONE!!!!

I don't know why I'm so into these right now! I love being in this world, but I have a feeling I'm going to be left with more unanswered question, just like the original series

Lemony Snicket delivers again with the second installment of his new series, All The Wrong Questions. I enjoyed this book a lot not only because of Lemony's wonderful writing style but also because things are never what they seem in his books. Characters are suspicious and you never know what you will find. Looking forward to reading the third book in the series!

I stayed up late last night to finish this book. I knew that one I told myself," Just a few chapters" it was a lie. As it always happens, when you near the end of the book it races to an exciting conclusion and you have no choice but to finish it then and there. I've always admired Snicket's writing and will be looking forward to his next book.

Have no problems with this one at all!! Snicket was batting 2 for 2 in the series so far. Things I LOVE in this book in descending order: 
5. Moxie appreciation - all the love to the reappearance of my fave journo 
4. The introduction of Hungry’s and Jake’s cooking!!
3. Town expansion: learning about INK INC. and the rest of the gang just getting all fleshed out
2. ‘The dilemma was a car that could drive through a building and emerge without a scratch, but the building may collapse’. 
1. CLEO KNIIIGHHHTT - thank you for gifting the world with her beautiful presence, snicket.
