I hate to read. In 6th grade, my teacher made us do a reading time, and I hated it, until the day she mentioned that she had a new series on her bookshelf, by an author named Lemony Snicket. At first, I saw everyone making a big deal of it, and I thought that it was just a stupid book. But I read the first book and I liked it VERY much. Now, I see what all of the fuss is about, and I cannot wait for the next book !
