I finished Nick Hornby’s Slam (really funny by the way), and now I’m on to Wicked by Gregory Maguire. Wicked is a story about how the Wicked Witch of the West ended up so wicked . . . and hopefully they explain how she became green. We’ll see how it is . . . I’ve heard mixed reviews. Some people say they love it, some people have said it is hard to get into.
The travelling Broadway production of Wicked is coming to Spokane in the spring, and I’m thinking that will be a great Christmas present for my mom (uhhhh . . . and I). A fun mother/daughter getaway in May!
The thing I like about reading the book the most right now is that the edges of the pages are vibrant emerald green . . . I think I like it so much just because it’s different than the same old newsprint.
