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

What a load of crap! This book attempts to explain that the Wicked Witch of the West is not really wicked, that she had no choice in what she did and was just doing what she thought was right. Bull! I have never seen so many philosophies on good and evil in one book, even in text books in college. The book reminds me of an ink blot test I took where it seemed like every answer was trying to get you to see something erotic and sexual. There is something wrong with someone who sees that in everything. I wish I hadn’t read as far as I did.

Rating: It’s my scale, so it gets a -5. It is well written, and that is the only reason it doesn’t get a -10.
