I have started rereading Wicked because I was too young when I read it the first time · 10:24pm Dec 19th, 2014
A mile above Oz, the Witch balanced on the wind's forward edge, as if she were a green fleck of the land itself, flung up and sent wheeling away by the turbulent air. White and purple summer thunderheads mounded around her. Below, the Yellow Brick Road looped back on itself, like a relaxed noose. Though winter storms and the crowbars of agitators had torn up the road, still it led, relentlessly, to the Emerald City. The Witch could see the companions trudging along, maneuvering around the buckled sections, skipping when the way was clear. They seemed oblivious of their fate. But it was not up to the Witch to enlighten them.
what am I doing putting my stuff on the internet. I'm a fucking joke.
Wait, someone let you read Wicked when you were too young to understand?
It's got a bleeding ORGY in it.

Would you believe that my mom actually recommended it to me? I was probably 15 years old... she figured if I was old enough to learn about sex, I was old enough to consume media with sex in it.
Most of what I got was that I had just read something very deep and mature and so I ought to feel smart for it.
