The Series of Unfortunate Events

I recently finished reading the series Series of Unfortunate Events and I think it was a pretty good series. There were 13 books total but the first few books kind of repeated the plot in a way until about the fourth book when it started getting interesting. So that's why I downgraded it by one star. I liked how the author would sometimes put weird phrases and vocabulary in the book and then would explain it too because I've never really seen an author write like that and I thought it was cool. Overall, it was a very good and interesting series.
