Semi serious question. I‘ve been going through my books trying to get rid of some (none so far 😅) and I found my copy of Wicked I tried to read back in high school. Should I give it another go?

Soubhiville In my opinion, no. I read 2 of his books years ago and honestly don‘t like his writing style at all. The blurbs on back of his books sound so good, but I have ended up really not liking them. 3w
rubyslippersreads I love the Wicked musical and The Wizard of Oz in general, and I did not like the Wicked novel. (edited) 3w
BarbaraJean I vote no as well. I loved the musical and hated the book. I really liked the tagged book by the same author, which I‘d read years before, so I WANTED to like Wicked, but I did not. Go with your high school self‘s opinion!![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

BookBr Just to play devil‘s advocate, I LOVED the book and disliked the musical. I thought Maguire really created a solid vision of an Oz for adults, if that makes sense. Lots of weird fairy tale elements to love too. 3w
Prairiegirl_reading I also vote no. I thought it was a disappointment. 3w
Susanita I liked his book about the tooth fairy but bailed on Wicked. 3w
willaful I liked his children's books but didn't get into Wicked. 3w
