This must be a wish granted from my retelling godmother because it’s absolutely perfect!!! Of course I want to give this a bazillion stars!!!! Peter is more in the book than he ever has been before and my heart is soaring for it!! And then Hook… oh my mushy heart can’t take it!!!
The story is told in a way that seems like a perfect explanation for the strange place of Neverland and a wonderful continuation of the story that never received a full ending. Who knew that I’ve been wanting this book in my life!?!?! Poor Peter is just an amazing character brought to life upon these pages!!! He is so very real that I ache for his pain. And Hook is his perfect opposite. The dynamic they have together is electric!!
There were parts where I found myself wishing for things to happen and yet it wasn’t predictable by any means. I really was emotional while reading this because the characters were so much more than they ever have been to me. And this is coming from someone who already loved the tale of Peter Pan.
What I’m trying to say is that this is amazing and if you adore retellings, lgbtq+ stories, tales of love and growth, or need to feel like magic is real, then this story is for you.
