 A bad review of Lemony Snicket's "The Bad Beginning"
When a relative was asking for suggestions for a birthday present for Sam I mentioned the first Lemony Snicket book ("The Bad Beginning") because I'd seen a lot of enthusiastic comments about the series, so that's what she got him.
I wouldn't call "The Bad Beginning" gore, either -- more like sustained child abuse with some particularly harrowing touches like, again, an element of sexual predation and also torturing the youngest child to get the older two to go along with what is being done to them.
Oh, and here's another minor complaint: the only two more or less good adult characters are a judge and a banker, whereas the villains include a disabled man and a fat androgynous person, with both of these conditions being portrayed as unsavory in their own right.

 Book Review: The Bad Beginning (A Series of Unfortunate Events) by Lemony Snicket
Such is the case with A Series of Unfortunate Events: The Bad Beginning (book one of a series.) The miserable stars of this tale are the three Baudelaire children, 14-year-old Violet, 12-year-old Klaus, and baby sister Sunny.
Abruptly orphaned in chapter one, the children are taken in, as per their parents' will by Count Olaf, who is a terrible, terrible man (how could it be any other way with a name like that?).
Because this series is so clever and well done, parents may find themselves eagerly consuming the series right along with their children, a la Harry Potter.
