Review: Dr. Seuss all grown up

Pat Hatt's "Glitch of a Witch" is like Dr. Seuss for grown ups. The story is told almost completely in rhyme, except for dialogue. It's a fanciful story full of memories from your childhood, like Candyland, but it's told with a decidedly grown up voice. Swearing abounds, so this truly isn't a book for kids, but adults will find something nostalgic about this book. It takes you back to a place where anything was possible and your imagination was limitless. Hatt's characters are endearing and whimsical, but the rhyming sometimes interfered with plot development for me. The rhyming was forced in some spots, but with almost 80 pages of rhyme, I kind of expected it. Really creative book.
