Actually, I read the reviews after I read the book - I hate being influenced. <BR/>What I liked was the writing - just gorgeous - and like you said, turning things on their heads so you look at them a different way.Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05943062466398436785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10560969.post-7257159328391641992007-10-28T15:22:00.000+01:002007-10-28T15:22:00.000+01:00Sam, I am only halfway through the book but I abso...Sam, I am only halfway through the book but I absolutely love Wicked too! I saw differing reviews on the book prior to getting it. Some loved it and some hated it. Those who disliked it seemed to dislike it for showing characters they liked in an unlikeable way. I like that about the book. He is such a good writer.Daisy Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10565670921126868030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10560969.post-47857591355482047872007-10-28T10:20:00.000+01:002007-10-28T10:20:00.000+01:00Gabriele - I think you and my daughter would get a...Gabriele - I think you and my daughter would get along Very well!!<BR/><BR/>Daisy - I LOved WICKED!
