The book certainly delivers what the title promises. The Baudelaire orphans are forced to work in a miserable lumbermill where they get two meals a day: a bad casserole and a stick of gum. Of course, Count Olaf lurks nearby. I was really glad to see the orphans get out of there ... but I'm sure their next destination will be even more miserable ...

Wonderful series. Most appropriate for middle school level children and older. Great book for family reading groups, as it leads to quite a lot of creative discussion.

My kids can read pretty much whatever they want. Given the option, neither ages 16 or 8 like these books and want to read more than one. Why? They say they are needlessly violent and depressing. There is a lot of killing - parents, aunts... While they may be well written or clever, I will take my children's cue and move these books out of our library.

Great book.

A Series of Unfortunate Events is a depressing story altogether, and this book well follows suit. Accurately named, The Miserable Mill introduces some new characters and throws in some old ones. While most of the other books are miserable in a different way, this book is dreary and boredom-inspiring, making you wish they had made an Idiot's guide to this.
