Q: What is a movie tie in? Is there new material in this compared to the original release?
submitted by Shane - 6 months ago
A: A “movie tie in” is something (in this case a book) that ties into a movie release (by having the movie poster as a cover)! There is no new material compared to the original release of this book.
submitted byYA Books are Epic - 3 months agoA: This novel has almost nothing in common with the musical. It's NC-17 rated & extremely dark & cynical. Winnie Holzman wrote the musical with songwriter Stephen Schwartz, who both also wrote the film.
submitted byKell Brigan - 5 months agoA: It’s just the cover that’s different with the movie poster. Idk why they made it confusing by adding [movie tie-in] though…

I picked up this book for my 13 year old because she loved the movie. I thought this would be a great way for her to take up reading novels. We found this book in the kid section of the store. I assumed it was for kids/Young adults and was sooooo wrong. This book is for adults. Very s3xual explicit story line and over words that I don’t want my 13 yr old saying. This is irresponsible of Target trying to pull this off as a kids book. Stop putting movie cover on books that have zero to do with the movie.
Must have for any wicked fans!

It’s so funny how all of you really don’t know anything and just assume 😭😭 like if you followed before the movie came out you woulda known better. Even a google search will tell you abt this book. If you rating 1 star then you deserve it. All you smut girlies will love this.

I love this book and ordered it after the release of the movie. I get the book today and immediately from the packaging it’s 1) Ripped on the cover 2) Got some dumb sticker on the title page covering the movie art. And yes, it’s the kind that leaves residue. Either go in person or order from somewhere else.

Placing the sticker where it is on the cover is despicable. Stop being petty and put the sticker elsewhere.

This book is NOTHING like the musical/movie. I don't know why they put the movie poster on this. It's misleading. The only thing that Stephen Schwarz took from the book is the names and the idea of the witches going to college. It is not a book for kids. It is highly inapropriate and deals with adult themes. Look it up on sparknotes before buying.

Hey Target! How about we stop putting promotional stickers smack dab on the cover of things we sell? This was supposed to be a gift and they put a very hard to remove sticker directly on Elphaba’s face… how stupid.

Please note this book is not the same as the play or the movie! It is for Adults! With that it is dark, compelling, radical and beautiful book. It is moving and tender.
Nope!

I don’t like it. I’m hoping the movie will be better. I think this book will be nothing like the movie. Likely the movie is based on the other 3 books in the series. This book is just a lot of yapping with nothing happening. Does seem like a fairy tale world!

Book is a great read, but has very adult themes and innuendo throughout. Story, film, and musical all echo each other in theme but offer different emotional and intellectual experiences. Design of the book is nice for a soft-back book. Spine is relatively flexible and finish on the cover is matte so as not to retain oily fingerprints.
