![]() And although there was definitely a possible love line between Amy and Nox, I like the fact that it never grew instantly into love and more like exploring Amy’s own curiosity over Nox (such as whether or not that she likes him or that she looks up to him in this so called mission to kill Dorothy). The fact that she was not your typical heroine makes it more likable, at least for me. ![]() Amy Gumm as the main protagonist might not be likable instantly, but she grew on you. I love how it chose to give a darker shade of what was a cheerful and colourful children’s story and although I couldn’t even imagine Dorothy being the horrible person that she supposedly was, as the story progress Dorothy sort of fits the new portrayal of her personality. I also have to be honest, I never knew the complete story of The Wizard of Oz, for I have never grew up with that story but I know enough to actually keep up with the dark retellings of the story. I have to admit that at first it did cloud my judgement about this book, but then regardless of it all I have to be able to be objective of this book, and I have to say I did enjoy this book a lot. I was not aware of any of the ‘drama’ that surrounds this book (be it the Full Fathom Five or the Kathleen Hale incident or the whatnots). I made the mistake of reading through the comments once I finished the book. ![]()
