I really enjoyed reading this entire series, and since I put them all up at the same time, they'll all get the same comment.

It was great to read and watch as the lives of the three siblings went on. It was amazing that they were always driven away from a good life, but still survived out in the end.

One thing I'm disappointed in is that I never got to find out what was in the sugar bowl.

The Thirteen books of this series left several things open-ended, which is by no means bad. It just makes me madly curious.

I am satisfied with how the ending went, but I won't say anymore about it. You need to read it for yourself. =)

My top three books of the series:
The Reptile Room
The Penultimate Peril
The End

I still remember the fun I had when I was reading the first 7, or even 10 books in this Unfortunate Events series. Politically incorrect it may be, but I have to say the unfortunate events in those earlier books gave me quite an entertainment, while still lamenting on the suffering of the Baudelaire children and admiring the almost ingenious writing style of L. Snicket. It was fun. But the last 2 books sent me into the brooding state almost as desolate as what the poor good people have been experiencing in the books. Bedazzled by the equivocal definition of good and evil and unsatisfied about so many unexplained mysteries thrown in earlier along the development of the story, now I am more than convinced about the warning set by the author at the beginning of every book or at the back cover of every book-- you will feel miserably, utterly confused if going through the whole series. There is no sense of closure, which is a disappointment for a reader. The writing style is still very admirable, it's just, I miss the fun part way much.
