I'm telling you why we broke up, Ed. I'm writing it in this letter, the whole truth of why it happened.
Min Green and Ed Slaterton are breaking up, so Min is writing Ed a letter and giving him a box. Inside the box is why they broke up. Two bottle caps, a movie ticket, a folded note, a box of matches, a protractor, books, a toy truck, a pair of ugly earrings, a comb from a motel room, and every other item collected over the course of a giddy, intimate, heartbreaking relationship. Item after item is illustrated and accounted for, and then the box, like a girlfriend, will be dumped.

And love, who can say the way it winds. Like a serpent in the garden of our untroubled minds.
God, Daniel Handler is a menace. I swear it takes me half the book to get used to it and then takes me an hour after I finish to get used to the real world again. Not sure what you're saying, but you say it so well, keep talking.
Also I saw the big reveals coming a ways away and I don't know if I'm smart or Handler is just really good at foreshadowing.
