Description In Favor Of Books The End of Oz (Dorothy Must Die #4)
Ding dong—Dorothy is dead. I watched as the Emerald Palace crumbled to the ground, burying Dorothy, the Girl Who Rode the Cyclone, under the rubble. And now that the rightful ruler, Ozma, has been restored to the throne… Oz is finally free. My name is Amy Gumm. You might remember me as the other girl from Kansas. When a tornado whisked me away to the magical land of Oz, I was given a mission: Dorothy must die. But it turns out girls from Kansas are harder to kill than we look. Now the Road of Yellow Brick is leading me away from Oz to the dark world of Ev, where I have a new, powerful enemy to deal with: the Nome King. And—surprise—he has a gingham-clad bride. With my magical shoes and a shrinking group of allies, I have one final chance to fulfill my mission, and save not only what’s left of Oz, but Kansas, too. As the line between Good and Wicked blurs even further, I have to find a way to get rid of Dorothy once and for all—without turning into a monster myself. Dorothy once said there’s no place like home. Can I stop her from destroying mine?Rating About Books The End of Oz (Dorothy Must Die #4)

Disappointed is an understatement to what I feel right now.I guess I was feeling optimistic when reading this book, desperately trying to scrounge for something I enjoyed.Having the finale of a series being the shortest book (its 270 pages, what?) in the series automatically had red flags swishing in front of my face and although I kept those alerts in mind, I wanted to see how it all ends, closure is the only thing I wanted from this series at this point.And how convenient that everythingBefore Reading:I still can't get over the fact that there is going to be a fourth book. Yellow Brick War was atrocious and should have concluded the series, but looks like Ms. Paige will get more of my money. I hope it returns to the innocent fun that was Dorothy Must Die, but that looks doubtful.After Reading:"'Three worlds, two pairs of shoes, sixteen villains ... It's too much....'"Who knew that the book would be so self-aware? The direction in which Paige took the series saw a massive
Full Review on my blog!Let me first start with saying that the series is a roller coaster of emotions perfectly twisted together to form a lovely book series! The End of Oz was a beautiful end to this series! This time we also get a point of view from Dorothy, and shes something else!I loved the dual perspectives in this book, showing us a whole new side to Dorothy. I especially appreciated the way we saw events from both Amy and Dorothys point of view, and seeing them both figure things out and
Hope this book is going to be better than the previous one
I don't know...this book just felt completely underwhelming. I actually loved the first three books in the series, and I agree with anyone saying that the series could've ended there.I thought The End of Oz was unnecessary. It seemed to swerve away from the main story, and although I'm all for the introduction of a new villain, in this book it wasn't incorporated very well. The plot for this book seemed very drawn out, and it wasn't until the end did the story actually move forwards.I actually
Update 2This book was exactly how I wanted this series to end! Update 1Yellow Brick War was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo good. I really can't wait for this book to come out. This is my favorite book series IN THE WORLD! The writing style is amazing and really grabs your attention. I can't wait to see how this turned out.
Mini Review: Jeez. What happened to this series?Is it just me? My reading tastes definitely shift over the course of a year, but I thought this was utterly awful.This book felt ludicrous in plot, and it was a predictable mess of a finale. We get a Dorothy perspective, which was laughably bad. It feels overwritten and like it's trying too hard.Perhaps I'm being harsh, but I think this series really fell apart, which sucks because it had one of the most promising first books that I've read.
