The End???

Have you read The End, the thirteenth book by Lemony Snicket? What do you think? Personally I was left a wee bit dissatisfied. I thought the author left too many threads hanging. Can we say Sugar Bowl? (If you know what I mean, you know what I mean, and if you don't, you haven't read the 12th book yet, which I cannot help). Anyway, I invite your comments. Can't wait to see what others readers are pondering.
