I'm curious enough to check out the next books, but I'm not as impressed as I'd hoped I'd be.

I think I read from Wikipedia that Count Olaf suddenly disappeared, while the protagonists escaped into the sea? And that no one knows what happened to the protagonists. It felt like I read the books for nothing, since it was gonna end that way anyway. It seemed like they wanted to unnecessarily prolong the series.Graphic: Kidnapping, Child abuse, Gaslighting, Murder, and Toxic relationship
Minor: Death of parent
Just a lot of bad stuff happening to the children protagonists and their confidantes/friends.shrutislibrary's review against another edition
