Juvenile Fiction. In the years since this publishing house was founded, we have worked with an array of wondrous authors who have brought illuminating clarity to our bewildering world. Now, instead, we bring you Lemony Snicket. Over the course of his long and suspicious career, Mr. Snicket has investigated many things, including villainy, treachery, conspiracy, ennui, and various suspicious fires. In this book, he is investigating his own death. Poison for Breakfast is a different sort of book than others we have published, and from others you may have read. It is different from other books Mr. Snicket has written. It could be said to be a book of philosophy, something almost no one likes, but it is also a mystery, and many people claim to like those. Certainly Mr. Snicket didn't relish the dreadful task of solving it, but he had no choice. It was put in front of him, right there, on his plate.… (plus d'informations)

A great intro to philosophy. ( )

This is a very strange book that I found delightful, but as I read it I thought most people probably won't like it. Even Series of Unfortunate Events fans might not like it. You have to be in the center of a Venn diagram where you're both a Lemony Snicket fan and someone who can enjoy a philosophical, theoretical, referential pseudo-mystery.

Anyway, my library system shelves this as adult nonfiction (813.54 American Literature) but not because it's inappropriate for children (SLJ says grades 4 and up). It's clearly fiction (it says so in the subject headings), so I'm not sure why KCLS has it in nonfiction (Seattle Public Library put it in Teen Fiction). I suppose it is self-referential enough to be fiction about fiction (meta-fiction) and therefore more of a book about literature than a true novel. But it seems fitting somehow that now I feel pretty confused about something I'm meant to know a lot about. I suppose this is why I'm a children's librarian and not a cataloger.

Poison for Breakfast by Lemony Snicket is a quirky, unique read that brings back one fantabulous writer to the reading circuit.

I grew up reading A Series of Unfortunate Events, so naturally I would want to pick up more by Lemony Snicket. Lemony's writing style is so unique and out there, it was only natural to want to dive into another work. And it's safe to say, the book was rather quirky. It has sass and attitude, which is why I enjoy reading these books. It's wild, out there and just something different.

I wasn't totally encapsulated by this book. It was okay, but it didn't hold my full attention. That being said, I really liked the style this book had. It's very funky and odd, in all the best ways. The repeated comments over and over (like the little breakfast poem) drove me insane though.

Overall, this is a nice, quick read that has a lot of spunk in it. It's like peeking into someone's mind instead of reading a story. There's lots of twists, turns and oddities to read through.

Two out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review. ( )

I would thoroughly recommend the audiobook for the reading experience. Patrick Warburton's dulcet voice is so enjoyable to listen to. ( )

Not one of my favourites of his, but I just love the way Lemony Snicket writes! ( )
