Summary: The book reveals a series of letters, alternating between Lemony’s letters to lost love Beatrice and her letters to Lemony. As you read along you suddenly realize that Beatrice, the recipient of the letters and Beatrice the sender, are not the same Beatrice.

Review: A hard cover folder set up with files in a “Snickett Case” is unique and beautiful. Included is a mysterious poster combined with twelve letters, six from Lemony to Beatrice and six from Beatrice to Lemony. Once you begin to read it, it is very difficult to stop. You’ll discover who Beatrice is and her relationship with Lemony.  The mysterious poster, some strange punch-out letters, and dreadful words tell you what happened to Beatrice. Like all other Snickett books, it is full of mysteries. The Beatrice Letters are interesting and entertaining; however, the main highlight of this book is the unique binding. If you are a fan of Lemony Snickett, this will definitely be one of your favorites.
