It's almost like the second half of this series is a completely different series than the first half. Where there was 6 identical novels, there's now a whole adventure and mystery solving and forward momentum. I think it was a terrible call to assume your readers will trudge through so much bore to eventually get to something good. Even though I still don't like Snicket's narration and find his character incredibly annoying, the story is actually getting good and I'm not dreading continuing like I have been. I would have quit long before it got interesting, if I were just reading it for my own enjoyment.

So many things I want to gossip about in this book, and all of the things that led up to it, but in an effort not to "spoil" I'll refrain. Of course it was fantastic with lots of ground breaking developments and long awaited revelations. And of course, more questions, more cliff hangers, and more suspense. Now to start Grim Grotto. I've officially finished all the books I borrowed from Katie, so once Dan finishes the next 3 on his stack, we'll be able to return them! Woohoo!
