Really Really Nice Book!

I really loved this book from the moment I laid eyes on it ... The Oasis is so real that it could be any old motel off the side of the road. Each character has an important part to play in the story, from the poetic Ms. Fernald to the secretive Uncle Wolfgang. Hand, the boy in the book, is trying to get the truth of how his father died, and trying to accept his mother after 3 years of never knowing where she was or how she was. This definitly counts as one of my favorite books. The author has a terrific mind for making everything come together into a nice circle, everyone playing a part, everyone making a difference.

Very Gregory Maguire

I purchased this book for my 12 year old daughter. Together we had read WICKED and Son Of a Witch by Gregory Maguire so I knew she enjoyed his literature. I was looking for a book she could read to complete a required book report at school. I found Oasis. While she said it started out a bit slower than she had anticipated when it did pick up she was mesmerized. She enjoyed it very much and found it to have strong characters with interesting lives, just as the books we had read together. Oasis was an easier read, great for her age group. She found the mix of mystery and fantasy entertaining. She received and A on her book report and highly recommended it to her peers.
