The New Wizard Of Oz by Lacy Maran, Kevin Michael
4.0

The New Wizard of Oz is a light, cute, romp. Where would Dorothy be after she grows up? How would Dorothy act if she was in the 21st century, instead of the 20th century? This book looks at that. It's a very light, fast read. It's well written & edited, with only a couple of things that were worded funny (and maybe that's just me, I'm not exactly an English teacher or a professional editor). The plot moves along at a good pace, and you are introduced to a set of characters that are each crazier than the next.

Overall, I enjoyed the book & it's well worth the 99 cent price tag. My only real negative is I never fell in love with any of the characters, and I didn't really feel a lot of chemistry between Dorothy and her love interest.

I received a review copy of this book for my kindle, from the author.
