177/196. 90% Complete

Ok. So maybe I’m using a different version of the book, but I still have 36 pages left to go.

81% Complete.

Completed Nakamura’s and Dr. Sasaki’s portion of the epilogue…

Had to take a little break from the book because of how heavy it is.

I just like how the Wicked Witch of the West is lauded as one the best film villains and or best protagonists in musical theatre and yet she dies in the same chapter she is introduced.

Older children’s books are kinda funny to me cause what do you mean it oddly got graphic.

What do you mean the tin man causally chopped the head of 40 wolves and the Scarecrow snapping the neck of some crows!?

Like huh!?

I mean I knew what was going to happen because I’ve seen the film, but I would’ve gotten so mad if they left the cowardly lion to die in the poppy field.

Thankfully they didn’t but why did they consider it 😭.

The Tin Man casually asks the Cowardly Lion if he has heart disease.

That’s it. That’s the review

Updating with the actual version I have.


The way I pogged when one of the munchkins was named Boq.

Ok, the junior novelization is finally clicking with me, or maybe it’s just because I like ‘raiders’ so maybe that’s why. Who knows? 😅

All my homies love Sallah

I’m starting to remember why I’m not that fond of junior novelizations. 😅
