A review by tallywinkle
The Penultimate Peril by Lemony Snicket

5.0

I want to note that it only just occurred to me while reading this book the true size of a sugar bowl. Because as a kid I was imagining a sugar bowl to be like, the size of a pot. LIke at least 1 litre in volume. Why? Who knows. But I have a distinct mental image of what this sugar bowl looks like and it was only on this reread that I realized I was so very wrong. 

So many unanswered questions and so much sadness. Another very good book. I think these books have sined so much more with reading them shortly after each other.  This book also taught child me what penultimate meant.
