I was really in deep with Maguire's Oz after finishing my re-read audiobook listen of Wicked, and then listening to my audiobook of this sequel. I have the fourth book, Out Of Oz, but not the third title, A Lion Among Men. The ebook wasn't cheap enough for my wallet, so I am going to see if the library has the audiobook when I visit on Saturday. I will tell you, I was having shakey Oz withdrawals!

Someone was mentioning the BBC shows for the His Dark Materials series and the upcoming new books about Lyra, so I decided to get books two and three read. I have an ebook bundle I bought a couple of years ago for $3.99. I am reading book three, The Amber Spyglass, and it is definitely different than the first two titles. Hmm...

MY GOODREADS REVIEW

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I adored this book and was more than upset about the reviews berating it because they weren't getting it. It is heartwarming and has an important message to convey. The idea of the special language is fresh and clever, not "stupid" and "dumb" as some reviewers said. I am sad that so many people have said they aren't going to try it because of these reviews.
