Wicked

I've been developing a wicked headache all day. I'm really hoping this doesn't turn into a cold or something, because then I'd lose all motivation to try to make low-sugar pies for Thanksgiving. It didn't help when a coworker went home mid-morning citing "fever and chills" as the cause.

In other wicked news, I've been reading Wicked. I'm not sure what when wrong the first time I started it a few years ago, but at that time I put it down after just 66 pages (my bookmark was still in it).

This time, I wish I didn't have other things to do and read so I could finish it more quickly. It's definitely a bit odd, but really good. I read all the Oz books when I was a kid, and now I want to re-read them.

I'm taking a quick break right now for a book I'm reading with an online group, but I hope to get back to Wicked by the weekend, nice long one that it is.

I thought Wicked was great. Just sayin'.

I loved Wicked.

The only reason I picked it up again was because I was listening to the CD of the OCR a *lot*, and it made me curious about the characters.

The more I read, though, the more I want to see the musical, because they seem to be very different.

they are very different. The book is much, much darker than the pop-style musical

And I'm in luck; the tour of Wicked will be here in July. *starts savings account*

dawnmarie said...

yes, I know. I will be attending it.

Have fun!

Really, if I move out as planned, there's no way I can afford to go.
