THE VILE VILLAGE
BOOK THE SEVENTH
Published 2001
The Baudelaires are sent to a village called V.F.D. They believe it has something to do with the secret the Quagmire triplets mentioned before they were kidnapped. The Baudelaires are treated cruelly by the villagers, but their guardian Hector is nice, if a bit skittish. The children find couplets once a day, and think the Quagmires are trying to communicate with them.

Thanks for the thread :)

Cannot wait... to reread! ;) This one brought up so many new questions, with Jacques, and the tattoos, and what it all meant. It was the middle point of the series in so many ways, both physically and in that it transitioned the orphans from being shuffled along from guardian to guardian, to now being out on their own, flipping the script :clap:

Really did result in a big change.

I had so many assumptions as I read that one, just trying to understand what was happening :lol:

Totally had that thing with Isadora's messages figured out right quick, proceeded to shout at the book until they figured it out ;)

:lmao: Was shouting at the book effective?

Alas no, it took them forever :P

But they're my babies so it's okay...

I can't get mad at them, Leigh, I can't! ;)

It's impossible :lol: They go through too much to be mad at.

And they're just so awesome :D
