I apologise if this topic has already been discussed.
In TUA, with all the extracts from different books 'stuck in', in an extract, there was mention of a VFD-contact incident in the library of Prufrock Prepartory School. A closer look told me it was supposidly from Carmelita's autobiography. She told the librarian "Go away, creep."
Is this the very book that Carmelita submitted at the Baudelaire's trial? (TPP)
Please discuss.

I think that was indeed the same book; at least that's the tidiest explanation. While I can't really imagine Carmelita as a published writer... then again, her book was published by the Spoiled Brat Press, which for all we know could be a publishing house devoted to works like Carmelita's. I don't think the means by which she got published are particularly significant, though.

I thought that it would be the same book; they seem to match. Maybe it was ghostwritten for her. Actually, no, the style sounds rather like herself. But anyway, there is a Spats fortune, I'm sure she or her parents could afford anything necessary. Or Spoiled Brat Press could specialise in publishing such tedious books.

Well, it's a pretty long title, but I forgot what it was.

Carmelita's book? It's Me: The Completely Authorized Autobiography of the Prettiest, Smartest, Most Darling Girl in the Whole Wide World by Carmelita Spats, from Spoiled Brat Press. The title is, obviously, a pun on the title of the U.A.

Ya know what'd be kinda funny? If they actually published a book like that.

Yeah, it would. Then we'd know if VFD tried to contact her - besides that particular incident.

I think that they most likely were, but she was so concieted that she never took the time to research more about VFD. And of course, Carmelita's not exactly the researching type.

A fan would be happy to get a Spats book! Haha. Maybe more redhead pictures of Carmelita?

Yes it's her book, but I doubt, again, if it has any significance, for if it was actually published.
