adventurous funny reflective sad
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes
relaxing medium-paced

Relaxing for me because I’m in love with Peter Pan

Well it’s definitely nothing like the original novel, a kind of mix between Disney’s Peter Pan 2 and the live action Peter Pan but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Rupert Everett as Captain Hook is EVERYTHING. And god bless good old Smee.

adventurous dark emotional funny lighthearted medium-paced

First time I've read this book and I love it!!!

8/10. Now want to read original.
adventurous emotional hopeful medium-paced
adventurous hopeful sad medium-paced

the racism/slurs used towards native americans is obvious enough that I won’t touch on it, but the amount of causal misogyny in this book is more than i was expecting💀 

in terms of the narrative tho it holds up fairly well so there’s that at least

I read the book while listening to my fiancé's audiobook. The story was a sad yet not sad story that was very interesting to read. (I know that sounds confusing but it'll make sense once you read it.) "Peter Pan" by J.M. Barrie is a nice shortish read that I'm glad to have read two different ways. A solid 3.5 rating for me.
