I've read it! I liked it. I thought it was very interesting. The political standpoint kind of confused me but the character of Elphaba was great.

I read it and I totally loved it! I'm suggeting it to all my friends who actually read books. It makes me stop and look at everything differently, not just in the Wizard of Oz, but in the world around me. One person's hero is another person's enemy. Was she really wicked, or was she just misunderstood. I love the musical too.

I've heard of it, but have yet to read it. I read Mirror, Mirror, the Cinderella one though. It was pretty good.

Wicked was pretty good. I liked confessions of an ugly stepsister better, though

I have to admit, the reson I picked up the book was because I needed something to read, and it recently becamse the basis for a sold-out Broadway Musical...so I bought...

And I am glad that I did, I couldn't put it down. I love how the author kept to the story line, subtly, but branched out as well.

Elphaba was a revolutionary, and the Wizard feared that...I think its cool how the author made the "Wicked Witch" human.

I have seen the book around, and I was wondering if it was any good. Now I think I will have to pick it up.

Read it and love it, but I have a deep love for the Oz Books in general. This was a nice twist to the books I know and love. whee

If you have not already I say you look into the Musical. It's a little bit different plot wise and it's slightly sugar coated but it's still an awsome production.
