Page to Screen Book Club: Wicked

Join us on the third Thursday of every month to find out if the book really is better than the movie. Each month we will read a book and then come together to watch the movie adaptation and discuss our thoughts. Registration is appreciated! (please note that this is a longer movie, so we will be starting book club sightly earlier)

October Pick: Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire

Celebrate Halloween with this witchy pick and prepare for the theatrical release of the sequel next month. If you’ve already read Wicked, consider reading Wicked: The Graphic Novel or The Wizard of Oz. Copies of all books will be available at the front desk.

About the Book
This re-creation of the land of Oz, tells the story of Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, who wasn’t so wicked after all. Past the yellow brick road and into a phantasmagoric world rich with imagination and allegory, Wicked just might change the reputation of one of the most sinister characters in literature.
