Review title: "Grim" is right...
Product review: As an adult, die-hard fan of the Lemony Snicket series, I'm having a reeeaaaallly hard time even getting halfway through Book the Eleventh. After last year's stunning "Slippery Slope," Daniel Handler seems to be treading water here, dragging things out so that he can make it to Book the Thirteenth, as is planned. But there's nothing in this "Grotto" worth much of anyone's time. No new interesting characters (some annoying ones, however); and Olaf and Esme's delicious devilry is put to little use. I'll slog through to the end somehow, but it ain't gonna be easy.
