This series just keeps getting more interesting. All the adults in these books are just infuriating! Again, I love Snicket's style. His dark humor, the allusions to tragic, unfortunate lives and events past, the quirky vocabulary explanations. The warnings of further dire circumstances and lack of happy endings. For the reader to turn back and quit reading. I mean, who else really does this? Just plain good writing. His exaggerration of the annoying or irrational qualities in his characters captures so well aspects of people that we all know and get fed up with, finding it best just to rely on ourselves and those few whom we can trust in life to consider us with dignity and fight for us.
