Poison for Breakfast

Poison For Breakfast is a very interesting, surprisingly funny, philosophical-as-advertised story. it purports to tell the true tale of what happened the day the author found a note saying "You had poison for breakfast", and it's very believable, until you remember that Lemony Snicket is not just a pseudonym but also a character in A Series Of Unfortunate Events. but Poison For Breakfast did manage to remind me what I like about philosophy ... which is honestly pretty hard to describe, and there's a cat demanding my attention, so, thanks for reading! check this book out!

I found this surprisingly engaging. It's been years since I read any of his children's stories, but it was still very pleasant to come back to this style. There's no easy definition for the intent behind the work, which meanders magnificently throughout and honestly really does defy classification, but I felt buoyed throughout and my attention was completely held all the way through.
