[HPFGU-OTChatter] Re: Lemony Snicket Books

[kemper mentor]

I have to agree with Firedancer.  
I first got into the Potter books because another adult recommended them in 1999 or so.  Since then I have tried some other "children's books".  Lemon Snicket is quite the yawn fest.  I really wanted to like it, but alas.  Other yawns that many people say are good...Eragon, Inkheart (though the the Thief Lord was mostly tolerable), and the Artimus (sp?) Fowl books... I only read the first one and had two good laughs, unfortunately they were towards the end of the book. 
However, Philip Pullman's 'His Dark Materials' trilogy kicks and so does Neil Gaiman's 'Caroline'.
