Reminiscent of Peter Pan and the lost boys and some really good character analysis of humanity as a whole when faced with struggles. How we try to achieve this collective control at all times but quickly fall down to hysteria and paranoia when faced with the unknown.
I felt like this was a really interesting look at life with an island of stranded boys and how they try to survive the wilderness.
I know a lot of this probably went over my head and that reflects in the rating as I didn't understand all the themes, but I'm glad I read this.
