Reading Wicked

I am trying to use this blog to keep track of some of the books I have read. For a book club, I read this over Winter Break.

I usually ramble on and on, but all I am going to say here is: do not read it!
1. It was vulgar. I am not generally what I would call prudish. This book was awful for just how grossly vulgar it got for no reason whatsoever.
2. Lots of red herrings. Tons of things were brought up in ways that seemed important at the time only to lead to nowhere, or at least to nowhere conclusive or cohesive.
3. The characters were not likeable. Parts of the book appear to be about redemption but in the end none of them were redemptive people.
