After 12 books and now ends with The End... 
 I didn't review this rightaway after reading. Because of having these mixed feelings about it. Annoyed, infuriated, I enjoyed it, I hated it, I loved it but now I think I am on a much better state. 
 I would say I enjoyed the whole series. Makes me think as Mr. Snicket as a realistic parent? As to like being blunt with the middle-grader-readers of saying since The Beginning that there really is no happy ending here. Nor these books being a fun and light reads. There's so much more to it than those fairy-tale-like-endings. It's like setting a younglings' mind into a much realistic life. 
 HAHAHAHA IDK, I just see it that way. 
 The End left me more with questions than answers. But I guess that just how reality works. The world doesn't have the answers and so this series. I still like how it all went. It feels like a bitter sweet ending. And life still goes on, world goes on.
