Burdensome Books

From 667 Dark Avenue

Burdensome Books is the largest category to date on 667, and is moderated by dynamic duo Antenora and Dante. This is where we discuss, speculate, and theorize about the books. The first board is Sardonic Series, with threads such as "Odd ASOUE Real-Life Coincidence Thread." This board has three sub-boards, Cheerless Characters, Perilous Places, and Weary Writer. The next board is The Trouble Begins, named after the box set that contains the first three books. Discuss said books there. Then follows The Situation Worsens, the box set title for books four-six. Discuss those there. After that is The Dilemma Deepens, for books seven-nine, and then The Gloom Looms, for ten-twelve, all named after their box sets. After that is The End, creatively named after The End. There, people speculate about what the end of the series really meant, and beg Daniel Handler to ignore the ultimate message of the series and write a bunch of money-spinning tell-all epilogues. The final board is Anguished Appendices, for discussing spin-offs such as the Unauthorized Autobiography and The Beatrice Letters. It used to be just the Anguished Autobiography, but when The Beatrice Letters was confirmed, it was changed.

A temporary section called Depressing Diversion was added to the top of the section. It was moderated my Gigi and Songbird. The purpose of the section was to celebrate the coming of The End. We got rid of that a while ago.
