I just wanted to say how much I am enjoying my current book "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West". I passed the halfway mark (there are 526 pages) a few days ago, and I'm slowly making my way through it. I've decided to read mostly on the bus/subway (or while waiting) so it's going to take me a lot longer to finish books. I may read a bit before I sleep but I tend to just stay up because I can't put the book down! And then it messes up my sleeping pattern.
Back to the book. I am REALLY enjoying it. We all know the story of Dorothy and her friends. We all know what happens to the Wicked Witch and who the Wizard of Oz really is. But only from Dorothy's perspective. So it's really interesting to see things from another perspective--from the "villain's" side.
I can't wait to finish this book!
