CW: Incest, ableism, poor handling of mental illness, kidnapping, degradation kink, anti-sex work language, internalized misogyny.
Narration review: Shane East, Stella Hunter, Diontae Black, Curtis Michael Holland, and Roxy Isles all did an amazing job. I’m usually not a fan of a large cast for audiobooks but here it really helped me keep trade of the many povs and made the characters feel more distinct. Despite my issues with the book itself the audiobook was a wonderful listening experience.
M/F polyamorous smutty retelling-ish of Peter Pan.
What I liked:
• The little bit of world building we get is very interesting. I enjoyed the twist on the world of original story.
• I like that there were attempts to give Winnie agency over her sexuality and her attempts to use it to get the upper hand.
• I liked Vane (I’m aware that might reflect poorly on me).
The Problems
• The incest (twincest). While the twins don’t have sexual with each other, they have sex with Winne at the same time and even seem to get off on watching each other. That’s incest in my book. There was no trigger warnings present j. The audiobook and it’s not listed on the content warnings on the authors website. I had no warning and it’s presented very explicitly as sexy for everyone involved.
• The world building was under developed. Much of the promising potential felt wasted. It was jarringly different from the world of the source material but never =.
