The film adaptation of the original novel, is probably the best movie adaptation of a novel in the history of the world. I love the film, and reading the novel beyond the film was just another incentive for me. My favourite part of the film was when the ruby slippers vanished off of the Wicked Witch of the East, and appeared on Dorothy. Those shoes, were so gorgeous! (Can you tell I love shoes?) Anyway, I also loved the part of the film when the horse changed colours. At this moment in time, I am learning how to green screen and use certain film animation techniques, and changing the colour of something is very hard. I bet it is really simple when you know the technique, but I am not fully trained yet.
My least favourite part of the film is when the flying monkeys are all over, and flying through the air. I was young when I first saw the film, and since then I am still frightened. Reading the part of the novel when Elphaba was performing surgery on the monkeys to give them wings, creeped me out.
If this novel were made into a movie, I do not think i would go and watch it. I think that it would ruin the novel for me. I know that there is a musical, but that is much different than a movie. First of all, songs have been added, the scenes would have been dramatised, and there would be more main characters.

Not another...
In this 8th last post, I am pondering reading the second novel in this series. Son of a witch (Maguire) is the continuation of the first novel. I have not read the back of the novel, or read any review of it online, but the first novel was really well written, that I think the second novel will be the same.
Judging by the cover, it seems as though Elphaba is back, but someone in in the crystal ball. This could be Liir, or it could be the Wizard. Who knows?
100 Blogs!
Hey everyone! So I decided that I really wanted to make this blog reach at least 100 blog updates so after this update I will have I my eight to go. I am really excited, and I think that once I am finished all of these updates, I will feel truly satisfied. Similar to Elphaba felt throughout the last few chapters of the novel. However, she ended up dead. I hope that I do not end up that way, but everyone does.
I have now completed blog 1 of 9. Here we go.

The End
This novel was such a great novel. I enjoyed reading beyond what the movie visually gave me. The storyline was a bit dry and plain at certain points, but they were there for a reason; to keep the reader at a continuous emotional level.
My favourite art of the novel was the beginning of the novel when Elphaba was just stating out at Shiz University. I really enjoyed reading about her and how she interacted with the other children her age.
I am curious as to how there is a series. I am guessing that maybe it will be discussing the Waterfall Goddess, and Elphaba’s family such as Liir. I was also hoping to read more about Liir. I did not like the way that Elphaba treated him throughout the part of the novel that he was in.
Another part of the novel that I really enjoyed, and please do not say that I am mean; is the part about how Manek died. I found it very ironic and appropriate. I did not like his character, and I really wanted him to leave.
I think I am going to read the next book in the series, just to see how the original and the second compare.
There are citations throughout the entire blog process, in case there are any links that would want to check out.
Thank you very much for reading. Happy reading everyone!

The Murder and Its Afterlife
Part one:
It has been years since the previous chapter has ended, and a tornado has hit Oz. everything is in disarray, and the people are going nuts. It seems as though the tornado is heavily related with religion. There are mentions of the Unnamed God, and dragons, but one thing is the same, they all believe that it is punishment. For what? It could be the emperor, or the greedy people in the Land of Oz. Who knows?
There are rumours about Nessa being dead. Well after a house fell on her head, one would think so. At this point in the novel, we have reached the beginning of the movie. Dorothy has just arrived in the land as well. Is her little dog with her too? As it turns out, yes he is, and he is very annoying.
Part two:
Elphaba has just received word that her sister has been killed. She had decided that she would not worry about her sister’s death and continue on with her, surgery of the wings for her monkeys. This is what she has dedicated her past few years to. What a great waste of time. She is though, using the work of Doctor Dillamond and some notes from the Grimmerie.
Elphaba, Nanny and Liir all live at Kiamo Ko, and it has been seven years since Sarima and the rest had disappeared. Nanny is very old, and is losing her hearing, which makes taking news such as Nessa dying, even harder. (At least for the reader.)
"Nanny," said Liir, "Nessie's dead." […]
"Nessie did what?" screeched Nanny, looking rheumily out at them.
"Did died dead," intoned Chistery.
"Did what?"
"Nessie DIED." said Liir.” (Maguire 335)
In this section of the chapter, the theme of grieving is present. At first there is the tornado, then Nessa dies, and now Nanny is on the verge of death as well. Luckily Liir is still healthy and did not disappear with the others. At the end of the chapter, Elphaba and Nanny are preparing for her funeral service. Elphie think sthat it would be appropriate to bring a page from the Grimmerie with her. She hopes that her father’s holy eyes will be able to see something.
Part three
Elphaba has arrived in the city and all the, Munchkinlanders are over-joyed that Nessa is dead. They are all having mini celebrations. Elphaba is curious about her brother, but he left town on political business. Frex finally comes into the picture, and Elphie asks him to see what he can read from the page from the
Grimmerie. He says that it is foreign to him.
Glinda then enters the picture. It has been along time since she was last in the story. Last time she was speaking with someone, was when she and Fiyero were out at the tea place.
They start up a conversation about the new-comer Dorothy. As it turns out, the film Glinda has better intentions than the one in this novel. Glinda has sent Dorothy to the Emerald City, because there are political problems happening, and with her there, there is a possibility that she will never be seen again. Elphaba believes that this is wrong, but she becomes even more upset when she finds out that Glinda gave Dorothy the ruby slippers.
Part four
This is one of the most important chapters in the book. The Wizard is finally introduced and he is a mean man. He is a chatterbox and he loves having power and control over people. He is introduced at Nessa’s funeral and demands to speak with Elphie. When they are speaking he demands the ruby slippers and the
Grimmerie. Only one of which Elphie has. He decides to blackmail her by showing her a prisoner. When Elphie gets a good look she realizes that it is Nor. The wizard also mentions that she is one of the remaining prisoners.
"Perhaps some underling who had no authority in the matter had an appetite for a bloodbath. It's so hard to get reliable help in the armed forces." (Maguire 351)
At this point the Wizard is being a jackass and just wants to have power and control of the situation, as well as not make a big deal about it.
The n he allows for insight as to why he is so interested in Elphie. As it turns out that nasty lady M. Morrible (Although other words would have worked better,) informed the Wizard that she may be up to something especially after she refused the offerings that she gave her.
The wizard informs her that she has a few days to prepare. Elphie leaves in a stupor. While she is leaving Glinda calls out to her. It is the last time they will ever see each other.
Part five
Boq is back! Elphie has met up with them while trying to catch up with Dorothy on the yellow-brick road. Boq is married to Milla and they have several children together. They are happy living a quiet life. The group of them speak about old times and the past. With the mentions to Doctor Dillamond and when they attended Shiz together, Boq brings up the topic of a painting he saw of a Witch holding a beast. (Similar to the one in the front cover?) Elphaba has a light bulb moment and leaves.
She has came up with the best plan for revenge. She is going to kill M. Morrible, and make her pay for what her life has turned out to be.
Part six
This chapter has the best example for revenge. Elphie is on a mission to kill M. Morrible. So she sets out to Shiz, which now is nothing more than a factory town. No longer the hustle and bustle of the Land.
When she arrives, she finds out that there is a new head master of the school. Elphie claims to be a former student of hers, and the new head, tells her that M. Morrible is very sick, and gives her the place of where she is.
When Elphaba arrives, she enters the Doddery, near where Doctor Dillamond had his funeral. M. was in a room by herself. The candle was recently lit when Elphie finds M.’s room. However M. Morrible has already passed away. So as any other insanely mad person, Elphaba beat M. Morrible with her broom. Then she realized that it was barely doing anything, so she picked up a trophy and smashed her skull. The ironic part of this is the trophy she picked up. It read;
"IN APPRECIATION OF EVERYTHING YOU HAVE DONE" (Maguire 365)
Part seven
Elphie feeling the need to brag, decides to go to Avaric’s house. He is rich, and has a high social status. At first he does not believe Elphaba and instead invites her for dinner. What a great way to start things off with.
At this dinner, it turns out that the other guests are rich, high social class people as well. They all have a heated conversation about the roots of evil. Elphaba knows that each and every one of them are wrong but, she does not voice her opinion until she is leaving. This leaves everyone dumbfounded.
Part eight
Another really important chapter. Remember at the beginning of the book, all the way back over 300 pages? Well the Clock of the Time Dragon is back. They are the travelling circus/cart. The dwarf tells Elphaba a story, but at this point she is a little bit drunk, from the dinner party.
As it turns out, Elphaba is from another dimension, where her and Yackle are working together as guardian angels. Elphie’s job is to guard the Grimmerie. The Dwarf says that he is also from the same place but Elphaba has special. He tells her that she is Aelphaba the Waterfall Goddess, reincarnated. Now she must watch the Grimmerie and that is her purpose in life.
He also tells her a story thought the puppets with the Wizard giving Melena the green elixir and them having sex. Does this mean that Elphaba is really the daughter of the Wizard?
Right before the dwarf leaves, he gives Elphie the piece of mirror that Turtle Heart made with her. Elphie made sure to put it in a safe spot on her.
Part nine
Short chapter. Elphie met up with Boq again. He thinks that she is insane with the while Dorothy scheme. He just wants her to relax, but she does not listen and just hops on her broom and flys away.
On the journey back to Kiamo Ko, which is truly Elphaba’s home, she meets up with a stranger that is travelling on the path. He informs her that he saw Dorothy. He also beats his Animal that he has with him, and Elphie says nothing. Odd…
Part ten
Another short chapter, but this one is half the length of the previous one.
Elphaba is trying to convince herself as to why she needs the ruby slippers so much. She is thinking about giving up and running away, but she is unsure whether this is a personal or political matter anymore. Right before she is about to give up, she spots Dorothy and the other travellers on the yellow-brick road. This is the same time as the prologue.
Part eleven
The rest of the chapters from here on out are all short chapters, ranging from a few to six pages.
This chapter is mainly a hallucination. Elphaba arrives back at Karma Ko, and speaks with Nanny. She tells her about everything that happened along her journey. Elphaba also begins to use the mirror that Turtle heart made, more. Elphaba has a vivid flash back to when she was a child, when she thinks that Dorothy reminds her of when she was young.
The flashback was of her childhood. Her father went to Quadling to ask for forgiveness about the death of Turtle.
Before bed, Elphie took the ancient bottle of the green elixir, and had a spoonful, hoping that it would help her determine what she is meant to do. This is the part where she has the hallucinations. She dreams about the other world, as well as the Wizard’s younger life and how he came to be. She is also able to view his attempted suicide. He ultimately failed, and now he is in Oz.
Part twelve
The news has arrived that Dorothy and her trop have met with the Wizard and they have been sent to kill the Witch. Liir mentioned that it is odd that the Gale Forcers would not do anything to stop Dorothy Gale. Coincidence that the names are the same?
Liir goes through what Dorothy and her trop want. They are the same as the demands in the movie. Although he asks Elphaba what she wants, and she does not feel like telling Liir so she begins to say solider but it comes out like: a soul… Liir answers that he wants a father. How sad, he has lived his entire life without a father, and practically a mother, and only now hw is asking for one.
Part thirteen
After making the mistake and saying she wanted a soul, Elphaba begins to think about religion. When she left her sister the last time they saw each other alive, her sister said that she would pray for Elphaba’s soul. Elphaba thinks a lot about religion and how it impacts her life, but in the end she is still confused about the entire thing.
Part fourteen.
With Elphaba playing with the idea of role change, she comes up with many ideas about who the travellers are that are with Dorothy.
First off she believes that the Lion, is the lion cub that she saved in Doctor Nikidik’s class. She also thinks that the Tin Man is the wood cutter that Nessa cast a spell onto. Finally she believes that the scarecrow is Fiyero in disguise. Such a crazy idea. She believes this so she sends out Killjoy, the dog, to go sniff to see if it really is him.
Part fifteen
The strangers are approaching, and Elphaba sends out the animals to escort the guests into the castle. However they takes this the wrong way and end up kill the bees, the crows and Killjoy.
Elphaba is able to get a good view of the scarecrow, and sees that he is only straw and cloth. She is very upset and disappointed.
She finally sends her flying monkeys to properly escort them.
Liir informs her that he will protect her, but he is not going to harm Dorothy. Is there a crush going on here?
Part sixteen
The most awkward dinner scene ever is about to take place. That is what happens in this chapter.
At the beginning, the monkeys bring the guest into the castle. But only Dorothy the lion and the dog are there. Dorothy is very reasonable with Nanny and Liir, and seems almost shocked when she finds out that Elphaba is really at the castle. When dinner takes place, Liir and Dorothy talk amongst themselves, Nanny tries to speak but since she if deafening, she is unable to understand what everyone is talking about.
Elphaba finally need to speak to Dorothy alone and takes her up to her private chambers, but not without a fight first. The lion and the dog are locked in the kitchen until the conversation is over.
Part seventeen
Elphaba is a crazy Witch. She is ranting about her life and how everything is not turning out he way it was planned. Is tired and exhausted, she is upset that Dorothy is going to attempt to kill her, and she begins to point the finger. She starts off with; Dorothy wanting to kill her, her working with the Wizard, her working with M. Morrible, and she is going to steal the Grimmerie. She is panicking so much that she sets her broom on fire.
She begins to chase Dorothy up the stairs, and on the way, knocks down Nanny. With her age and condition, she may have died. With Dorothy freaked out, she asks for forgiveness. Elphaba can relate but, she was never able to receive forgiveness from Sarima because she is dead.
This causes Elphie to accidentally set herself on fire. Thus the bucket of water is poured onto Elphaba to put out the fire, but instead she is dead. Dorothy succeeded. She has killed the Wicked Witch of the West.
