667 Reviews: And Then? And Then? What Else? Daniel Handler takes the reader on a deeply personal journey through his life, his work life, how his mind works, his adversities, and his triumphs. Before I continue any further, it's important to mention that this book deals with very serious topics, such as hallucinations and sexual misconduct. Please consider this before reading. Despite being only a little over 200 pages, the book has a great deal of content, but it's not overcrowded. Everything is given enough focus and care, and nothing is without reason. I will briefly mention what I consider highlights of the book. Daniel Handler takes time to discuss what goes into writing one of his books; the process of gathering information, organizing his thoughts, and what helps him decide what to write about. The book includes several stories about Daniel Handler's days as Lemony Snicket's representive, a new perspective during those times, and struggles that came with it. All of this was what I expected from this type of book, but what else it included was surprising. In the last 25 years, Daniel Handler has never been as personal to his readers as he is in this book. He shares vulnerable anecdotes, some of which are greatly disheartening, but he uses many of them to give a positive takeaway. I think this book has something that anyone can enjoy. There is information that would be interesting to hard-core or casual fans of Daniel Handler's previous works, as well as solid information that even someone that's never heard of "Lemony Snicket" can benefit from.
