Finished Wicked!

And yeah. )
Thats all I can think of for the moment, I think I need to chew on it for a while to figure out the rest of what I think about it. But I am excited for the sequel! Son of a Witch is supposed to come out at the end of September, so I suppose its sort of perfect timing.

Has anyone read Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister or Mirror, Mirror and are they any good?

Hee, have renewed journal and added a bit more for icon slots, yay! Now I just need to er, actually make them.

ETA: Wicked - Musical vs. Book - Quick thoughts )

Gip!

Heh, new icon.

Still reading Wicked, stuck in the Vinkus and I think part of the problem is that the book felt like it was building and building and then...not so much. Plus I got distracted by two giant downloads actually finishing one after the other (Princess Tutu and CSI Season 1).

Watched the end of Tutu and predictably I cried.

Also, what other show would leave you thinking "Oh, that brave little duck!" ?

It compares nicely to Utena, I think, both in the ending and some of the big thematic stuff (not to mention some of the weird dreamscape wtf? stuff), but more obviously for kids in that things are pretty much spelled out.

About halfway through Wicked and am still boggling at how different it is from the Musical.
Thoughts )

The maddening thing is that I don't remember enough about the Oz books to know how they present things, except taht I remember these little bits and pieces (like there's a 4th Witch right? And her colour is red, so she rules the Quadlings? Maybe? And I remember where Ozma was hidden, but not any of the specifics about her as Baum lays them out. Where there other talking Animals in the books other than the Lion?)

Think I may go for the 100 icon thing when I renew my lj account, because. 100!
