Be brave. Be angry. Don't trust anyone.

Dorothy Must Die - Danielle  Paige

I adore retellings. I don't know why. Maybe it's because a classic story can live on through other people's ideas. Maybe it's because a villain gets the chance to be a hero. Maybe it's because a book can be retold in such a way that it just blows your mind. I loved this! I admit, it started slow and I almost...I almost gave up it, but I am so glad I didn't. Amy Gumm is from Kansas and when a tornado whisks her away to Oz and away from her irresponsible mother, she thinks that may be just what she needed. Then she learns the true meaning of why she was sent there. Dorothy must die...and she is the only person who can kill her. This story is exciting and action-packed. Once you get into the grit of the story, there is no turning back.
