ok. when the word has a vowel sound at the beginning, use 'an', like 'an hour' (it has an 'o' sound at the beginning). hallucination has an 'h' sound, so use 'a' (and 'h' is pronounced ay-chu, so its 'an h')

i also noticed- in THH, violet leaves in a hospital gown. in tcc, she shares the suit with klaus to be a 2 headed person, presumably with the hospital gown. in tss, she has her regular clothes again (well k and v get out of the suit and are wearing normal clothes)

i noticed that to... in the beginning of TCC it says something about violet and klaus putting there disguise over their clothes, and it says about violets gown. in the pic in the bignining of TSS she and klaus are in there regular clothes, without scars, grey hair & they are wearing glasses and/or ribbons. They arent dressed as freaks. i know it says they get out of the disguise, but i would think that A) violet in gown not violet in dress and B) would Brett helquist have drawn a dress if he was told to?

I saw that too.
And what about Violet's shoes? At the end of THH I don't think she had them on, but in TCC and TSS she apparently has them on.

There are a LOT of grammatical mistakes in TWW --- but I think this was a delibrate joke.

Y'know josephines note, that had all thos grammer errors, to lead to CURDLED CAVE? well, i thought that these were connected somehow. Theres many errors in the series- whether DH put them there or its the publishers fault - like 'thoroughout' instead of throughout in TSS, and im sure that somewhere lemony is talking about his "comprades". i looked up "comprade" and the closest i came was compradors, which has nothing to do with "comrades".
i think "comprades" was in TSS or LSUA. ill check soon

I'm not sure if you'd count this as a mistake, but on pg. 90 of TAA Nero actually remembers the Quagmires are triplets.

somewhere in chapter 2 of TMM, the word 'the' is used twice in a row.

Did anyone else notice on page 254 5th line from the bottom that it's mispelled "handiwork"?

actually, handiwork is spelled correctly *grabs dictionary*
handiwork, noun.1. work done by a person's hands. (SYN) handwork. 2. work that a person has done by himself, or work that another agent has done by itself. Ex. A tree is the handiwork of nature. 3. the result of a person's action.
handywork is not in the dictionary.
