This time around: Wicked.
Okay, this one took me a while to get past the first 50 pages. I just needed more progression, but the book needs to be returned to the library tomorrow, so I plowed through it this week. Now that I'm done, I really enjoyed the novel. What an interesting subject! The life of the Wicked Witch of the West, who lead a challenging life of always attempting to get affection from her father, the attempt of control in college, getting involved in the revolution against the Wizard of Oz, the discussions of Animals vs animals, and that the murder of the WWotW was really an accident. That Dorothy and the WWotW were really more similar at that one moment of time than the WWotW has been with anyone else in her life. Very interesting and a nice take against the version of the movie we all grew up with. (Speaking of which, I haven't read that novel either.)
Would I read it again? Yes...and I'm really interested in his other novels following the "evil" ones from other stories too.
