My Love for “The Series of Unfortunate Events”

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at HPU chapter.

When I was little I read the “Series of Unfortunate Events” (SUE) by Lemony Snickett and I was in love with the storyline of orphans sticking together throughout many scenarios where their life is in danger by Count Olaf and his groupies. Now that there is a Netflix series, I am so happy to put a face to the characters, and here are some of my favorite moments from SUE.

1. Esmee is a badass

I have a love/hate relationship with Esmee, but she is seriously a badass and matches being an accomplice with Count Olaf.  

2. Carmelita

I think she is very funny in the series  and just as annoying as I remember her from the books

3. The disguises

Can you even tell that it is Neil Patrick Harris orrr???

4. These child actors are talented AF

Violet, Klaus, and Sunny who play in the series are so talented, and they match the role so well!

5. The ending tho

Okay tell me not were you not cringing at this cliffhanger???

 

Seeing the book series come to life is a dream come true, especially because it is actually good!
