Lemony Snicket

Even though sometimes people bring us down sometimes,doesn’t mean everyone else will.Like Lemony Snicket once said “Deciding whether or not to trust someone is like deciding whether or not to climb a tree[...].”You choose what you do but of course we don't know what happens.“You might get a wonderful view from the highest branch,or you might simply get covered in sap[...].”People will sometimes break your trust,but that isn’t the same with everyone else will,besides it's worth it sometimes for…

the last safe place, which was also known as Hotel Denouement. After falling into the Stricken Stream and floating away, the author (Lemony Snicket) revealed a poem’s certain quatrain portrayed their dire situation. Another picture did the same and showed their nervousness and confusion throughout the perilous adventure. As described by Lemony Snicket, the first half of the quatrain (That no life lives forever, that dead men rise up never) showed that almost all the men in the…

narrator Death has a unique background and way of speaking to the reader. In William Goldman’s Princess Bride, the narrator’s respect to time makes the reader feel close to the action, while still remaining omniscient. Also, in The Bad Beginnings, by Lemony Snicket, the narrator is first person, but tells the story from the periphery, without being involved in the action or plot. A differing example of a distinct narrative voice is present in The…

The book The Wide Window by Lemony Snicket consists many diverse characters. Including Klaus, one of the three Baudelaire, who is simply one of the smartest twelve year olds and the grammar obsessed Aunt Josephine who lost her “dear Ike” in a terrible leech accident. Both characters are somewhat important to the plot of the story and are involved into this particular book. These two characters can be alike in some aspects but are also very different at the same time. There aren't many…

“Now we know, as she [Oedipa Maas] does, that she can carry on, that discovering that men can’t be counted on doesn’t mean that the world ends; that she’s a whole person.” Pg. 5 As Foster previously states in this chapter, quests are for self-discovery and solving an unanswered and potentially unknown mystery that lies deeply within you. In his example of Oedipa Maas in The Crying of Lot 49 he describes the unpleasant and perhaps overwhelming voyage that one must go on to come…

I Ain’t Callin’ You a Truther! The key to good eavesdropping is not getting caught. ― Lemony Snicket Eavesdropping leads to drama since it demonstrates that there is no trust or the person wants to know what is happening within the community. People do not think of the consequences that comes from eavesdropping. In Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Polonius establishes an egotistical persona. He believes that everything he says is right or he will find a way to prove it. Polonius gives Laertes advice, yet…

The thought begins with the start of the week or the close of the previous. It manifests itself in the desire to move forward in your college goals and in your present situation. You might have otherwise developed an earthshaking document of thoughtful weight, but the time constraint squeezes the lobes within your cranium into a catastrophic overload of stress that results in your clever solution. What should one write about for the assignment? The first step to trying to figure out what you…

Seuss. Here I learned not to judge a book by it’s cover, I apply this to my life today. While, this was my first, distinct memory my actual favorite books include, The Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket, and The Magic Treehouse by Mary Pope Osborne. These titles have proven themselves as a place for trials, and sporadic behavior, as everything is not promised from the new settings in every novel. My ideas of going on adventures came from the…

To Lemony Snicket, I have just finished reading the first book of your ‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’ series. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, even though it was my second time reading it. Throughout the book, I appreciated the definitions of the words along the way, which helped to understand the book. I also admire the excellent description used throughout the series, which really made me visualize the story, and paint a picture in my head. The plot was fast flowing, not dwelling on a…
