I found "The sorcerer of oz ding dong the witch is gone" to be a disappointing read. The concept had potential, but the execution fell flat. The pacing was too slow, with long stretches of mundane descriptions that did little to advance the plot. The main character lacked depth and remained stagnant throughout the book, making it difficult to root for their success. There were also several instances of inconsistencies and plot holes that left me confused and frustrated. While the book had some redeeming qualities, such as imaginative world-building, they were not enough to salvage the overall unimpressive narrative.
