The last book in "The Series of Unfortunate Events" came out today, and I can't wait to get my copy. Have any of you read the series and are going to get it/already have it?

I mostly like the series because it's really dark, but that's the sort of funny thing to it. I think the constant warnings of "don't read this book, throw it away, etc." do get a bit old after time, but it sort of adds to the reading, I guess. If Lemony Snicket is going to write novels, I'll probably go buy them.

What are your thoughts on the series?
