Summary

This is a very, very sad story. The characters suffer terrible tragedies. People die in unspeakable ways. Only a truly horrible person would be amused by their misfortune.

Nevertheless, it is kind of funny.

My advice is that you listen to this all by yourself. People can be judgy.

If you’re a fan of A Series of Unfortunate Events, Edward Scissorhands, or the darkest bits of Roald Dahl, the Weirdie triplets - Barnacle, Garlic, and Melancholy - will feel like old friends. After being left behind when the entire estate of Deadeye Manor is packed up for a doomed vacation cruise, the triplets have to learn how to fend for themselves. (When a staff of 200 servants has taken care of your every need, even brushing your own teeth is a mountainous task.) From their time at the Our Lady of the Perpetual Side-Eye Orphanage to their adoptive home on picture-perfect Sunshine Circle, the Weirdies have a lot to learn about the world...but, at least, they have each other.

Had me laughing throughout! Despite the ridiculousness of the story, it's actually very intriguing! Loved the narrator's voices and the way it sounded like she was naturally conversing with the listener!!
Fairly similar to the Willoughby's. Overall, Highly recommended!

Brilliant for all ages

Cela fait du bien de s évader dans un monde tel que celui évoqué. a tel point que j'ai trouvé l'histoire trop courte et magnifique interprétation des personnages auxquels on s'attache très vite.

hilarant
