Have you read them? Are they good?

I have falling out of reading just from boredom - finding something engaging. Mostly I read about gardening and paganism.

I have only read wicked, if your a fan of OZ I would read it, personnally I think he's guilty of going on a bit!

I have read the book which was amazing and last week I went to see it on stage in London.
I must say I prefer the stage show, but that's only because I thought the costumes were fantastic and I loved the songs

I have read all of his books(well am in the middle of Son of a Witch) He has a great twist on fairy tales. Wicked was phenomenal to me though very very political. I was actually just talking to my therapist about this book today. I read it about a year and a half ago and got it from a friend. I love how it gives you a whole different perspective and makes you look at a person's life not for how you percieve them but for what they truly are and what formed them

no, but i'd sure like to find out if there's some way that wouldn't cost me anything. probably all true and even then not the still yet a fraction of the whole truth. i'm always interested in the parts BOTH sides to a dispute leave out. often the whole real context sleeps hidden there.

now why didn't i think of that? sometimes i forget there's a world out there!

eeesh! they've probably got it on vhs or dvd too. or again they might not. it's not that real big of a library. this town has never had one adiquite to its population. but it does have one. and it IS a LOT better then what it was 40 years ago! (when it was just amazingly crappy)

They do have it in Audio Cassette and CD as well, if you were into listening to it while you were working. If your library is like most, even if they don't have everything, they are part of a network and should be able to get it for you.
