I really liked this book! It was a very interesting take on Peter Pan and the lost boys. I think the author did very well for the most part. Literally I would be giving this book a 5 star if not for the fact that in only ONE paragraph, she used the word “sorta” when that slang was not used in the rest of the book. It was weirdly out of place and I’m not sure if it was an editing error or on purpose. But it gave me major ick. Otherwise I would def recommend but also please check trigger warnings before reading.

Ok, is this going to win any literary awards? No. Was it trying to be too big for its boots? No. Is this really fun and silly? Yes. Its a dark retelling of Peter Pan and the lost boys. Its spicy. Its rediculous. My only gripe was that it was meant to be enemies to lovers which i honestly didnt feel the enemies part of it.
