Reading these strait after book 13 is recommended, unless you have a photographic memory. Letters are from Beatrice (Kit's Daughter) to lemony snicket. And from lemony snicket to Beatrice (Violet, Klaus, and Sunny's mother). The end.

Made everything more confusing.

I read this hoping to unravel a bit more info about the life of the Baudelaires and their fate. I just ended up with even more questions. Classic Lemony.

Can we just talk about all the feelings I have after reading this book? Seriously. My favorite part of the ASOUE series was Lemony Snicket's relationship with Beatrice. Actually, while I was reading the series, I wished there was a book that put more emphasis on their story, and this book does exactly that. It's incredibly heartbreaking reading Snicket's letters to Beatrice. I don't even want to get into his letter proclaiming his love for her, because I was in chills and near tears the whole time (and I'm sure it will always had this effect on me, no matter how many times I read it). They're probably my favorite fictional couple after Lily Evans and Severus Snape. Anyway, I also liked baby Beatrice's letters to Lemony Snicket, which take a less serious tone. I also have to mention the physical characteristics of this book. It's probably the most beautiful book I've ever bought, and I love how it's organized with files. I'm probably going to go read this a hundred more times tonight.

This is best read between books 12 and 13, because of you read book 13 first then you know immediately what is happening. And as always, there are no answers, only more questions.

Now that I've read all of the letters, I'm so excited to go through this now and decipher the anagrams and clues ♡♡♡
