Review: Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Paige

Title: Dorothy Must Die
Author: Danielle Paige
Series: Dorothy Must Die, #1
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy, Retellings
Publisher: Harper Collins
Release Date: April 1, 2014
Find It: Amazon / Barnes & Noble / Goodreads / Book Depository
My Rating: 
Book Summary:
"I didn't ask for any of this. I didn't ask to be some kind of hero. But when your whole life gets swept up by a tornado - taking you with it - you have no choice but to go along, you know? 

Sure, I've read the books. I've seen the movies. I know the song about the rainbow and the happy little bluebirds. But I never expected Oz to look like this. To be a place where Good Witches can't be trusted, Wicked Witches may just be the good guys, and winged monkeys can be executed for acts of rebellion. There's still a yellow brick road - but even that's crumbling. 

What happened? Dorothy.
They say she found a way to come back to Oz. They say she seized power and the power went to her head. And now no one is safe. 

My name is Amy Gumm - and I'm the other girl from Kansas.
I've been recruited by the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked.
I've been trained to fight.
And I have a mission."

New York Comic Con 2014 Bookish Things

Hey Guys! So, I recently went to New York Comic Con and I had such a great time! If you've never been to NYCC I highly suggest it. You don't need to love comics in order to have fun there because there's so many other things to enjoy; tv show & movie panels, actor photo ops & signings, video games, book panels, book freebies, author autographs, looking at all the people who dress up in cosplay, etc. There's something for everyone to enjoy!

Here are all of the bookish things I saw at NYCC!
