A Series of Unfortunate Events: The Reptile Room

Number 2 by Mr. Lemony Snicket. This book picks up where the first left off; with the Baudelaire children traveling to their new guardian's house. Dr. Montgomery Montgomery is a herpetologist: a snake scientist; and as the Baudelaires arrive to live with him, they find that they will be accompanying him on a trip to Peru to collect specimens. Just when the children's lives are looking better, the new assistant Stephano *coughOLAFcough* shows up...

Favorite Quote: "Count Olaf sounds like an awful person. I hope he is torn apart by wild animals someday. Wouldn't that be satisfying?"- Dr. Montgomery.
