47. A Series of Unfortunate Events : The Hostile Hospital

by Lemoney Snicket (255 pgs)

This being eighth book in the series and it shows no signs of stopping. The little orphans find themselves on their own after the unfortunate experience with the Vile Village and so, following the unlikely number of leads with the initials V.F.D., they find themselves scrounging around in the records department of the Heimlich Hospital. As usual, things go from bad to worse and the orphans find themselves in a very cramped and unlikely hiding place by the end of the book.

This was a quick read even for the series. The secondary Snicket plot arc is beginning to come out more, as well as the connection between Snicket and the Baudelaire children.
