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

3.0

Very interesting unfolding of a story I’ve seen the differing perspectives and renditions of through the Broadway play and through the Wizard of Oz movie. The book was more different from the play than I had thought it would be and gave far more human type characteristics to fairytale characters where characters were more flawed and certain situations were due to circumstance rather than intent. Overall didn’t love the book but also didn’t hate it. Happy I read it before seeing the new movie that just came out.
