Content: G (mild danger)

BUYING ADVISORY: EL - NO

AUDIENCE APPEAL: LOW

Evie and Sebastian are on the hunt for all of the Filipendulous Five. Even though Sebastian doesn’t want to be n this journey at all, but he stays for Evie’s sake. Not all of the Five want to be found and at least one of them is in a terrible situation from which they can’t seem to escape.

I just saw a blurb on the back of this book that says “...Fans of a Series of Unfortunate Events will be drawn to this.” Now I get the increase of adventurous books that are also trying to be absurd. It’s not working.
