The Austere Academy

 

“HOOK”

The Baudelaries did not hear about the fifth time because Nero’s door swung shut behind them.” (Page 94)

“I do not! ‘Violet cried. ‘ Klaus, our situation is too desperate to pretend not to recognize him any longer!’

‘Hifijoo!’ Sunny agreed.

‘I guess you’re right,’ Klaus said. ‘What have we got to lose?”(Page 149)
