It took me a few hours to read TSS because I had to take breaks. Lemony's books are just too insanely fun to read in one sitting.

I read taa in a few hours, so I can read it quite fast. But since it will be a school day... A day for me.

His books take me about a day, but I'm considering starting a little notebook to analyze the books and jot down some things. So if I do that, it will take me longer. I've already gone and marked up my TUA a ton...

Darn school! Always getting in the way of quality reading time!

Exactly! But we should follow Lemony's advice, "you should always get a good night's sleep so you do well in school, unless you are in the middle of a good book in which case you should stay up all night reading and let your schoolwork fall by the wayside, a phrase which here means flunk."

Lemony Snikcet: A Role Model to Great Academics
:adds to the list of possible bio titles:
I re-read TBB today and it took me about five or six hours. But then again, I think that's the shortest of the series.
Mmm...According to the sign on the side of Olaf's theatre, popsicles are only 5 cents, how yummy and cheap!

Probably about 3 hours. There's not much writing on each of the pages (they're kids' books, remember?). Then again, TSS was a lot longer than the previous books, so maybe TGG will be longer again. Does it say how many pages it will be on amazon? I haven't checked. Last year I re-read the rest of the series before I read TSS, since I forgot some stuff over the year. I don't know if I'll read them all again this time, but I'll definitely re-read TSS beforehand.

Sadly I don't have the whole series. I have bbre, AA, borrowed EE, VV, SS, and LSUA. So those are the only ones I can reread.

The library is such a helpful place when wanting to take out unowned ASOUE books. The only ones I own are TUA and TSS. The rest I am holding ransom from the library.

Probably a little bit less than a day.

I borrowed the ones I don't have from the library or from friends. It comes out on Tuesday, which sucks, I won't be able to even get it before 5 PM if I am allowed to get it that day. I'll have to beg and do nice things for my parents.... again... Once I have it I'll still have homework, then after that and whatnot I'll read as fast as I can. If necessary I'll sacrifice sleep to get it all finished. A last resort will be to take it to school and finish it during downtime in school.
