This was so good! What happens to Wendy post-Neverland is absolutely harrowing, as is the grim truth behind Peter's boyish facade. The story is told from both Wendy and her daughter Jane's POVs. There's also many flashback chapters to Wendy's past. I thought the overall story was gripping and a really well done take on the Peter Pan world. My favorite thing is the family Wendy eventually creates! This story is queer and features lovely queer platonic relationships. Wendy is asexual and possibly aroace (at least, that's how I read it). I read this because I got an ARC for Hooked, so I'll be starting that next!

Not having read Peter Pan since I was a child.. Uhm? Is it way darker than I remembered?! Regardless... This story was LOVELY.
