"The End" of Lemony Snicket

I finished "The End" today.

I have thoroughly enjoyed this series of "Unfortunante Events". The stories are dark, humerous and contain great references to other works of art. Caligari Carnval is one of my favorites, but The End had so many "shipwreck" references I actually couldn't keep up. Sunny's vocabulary never fails to make me laugh (she actually used both Merde and Shisse - French and German for sh!t - in previous books).

There a nice little piece about some of the Snicket references here but there are many many more. Also, I found a very difficult quiz about previous volumes (that I failed - a word which here means "I have a pathetic memory") here.

Anyone else "in the same boat" with me?
