A review by vanangelo
Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire

4.0

As a self proclaimed Wicked super fan I have been putting off reading this book for decades. I really love the way Maguire writes, I’ll be honest that it took me a second to settle into the style but it’s really captivating. I love the sectioning, and changing of viewpoints of the book. It’s a really deep introspective of how the world can really craft someone into something they’re not. “Are people born wicked or do they have wickedness thrust upon them?” I’m interested to read Son of a Witch. As a fan of the musical it was great to ready the source material which really has so many difference and yet a warm familiarity.
