Has any one read Lemony Snicket books?

I picket up The Miserable Mill and was trying to decide my opinion. I found the book to be very compelling to find out what happens next and well written. But I question, is this something I want to encourage for my DS9 who is a bit negative now? School has been hard not being challenged enough. He is very very sensitive.

Sometimes other peoples problems can make one take a new perspective. Then we realize, it's not so bad. What do you think of this in relation to the books?

I would be curious to understand the merits of the books for others.

Is there anything scarey in this series. DS would not go near Harry Potter or Goose bumps. I do leave him somewhat responsible to read appropriate. I'm just curious what others would comment. Thank you inadvance.
