An interesting read. As the story progresses, the author also includes historical references that relate to the unfolding events. A good read for a young adult interested in war and history.

The story was interesting, but the author leaves a lot to be desired. Many points are brought up, but never filled out. Still a good quick read though.

I really enjoyed Wicked, but I just couldn't get into this one. Honestly I didn't even finish it, which is saying something for me. I always finish books, even if I don't really like them.

I really enjoyed this book. It was slow at first, but once the characters started developing, I really got into it. Its a really interesting twist on the original Oz story. Anyone who has read the original, or seen the movie, will surely enjoy this.

This book is good, but really kinda odd. The story is confusing at times, and honestly I got the creeps once or twice imagining this. Also it was a little frustrating because I wanted her to have a condition or something, but no, she is just shy.
