✨ Book Review: Hooked by Emily McIntire ✨


🖤 Revenge never tasted so good. 🖤

This twisted Peter Pan retelling had me hooked (pun intended) from the start. James and Wendy’s paths were never meant to be easy—it’s betrayal, obsession, and family wounds that cut the deepest. The plot is dark, spicy, and full of poetic justice that had me gasping by the end.


⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you love fairytales turned wicked, with danger, passion, and revenge served cold—this one’s for you.


📖: Hooked (Never After Series)

✍️: Emily McIntire



3.75! Didn’t know I needed a brooding sexy Captain Hook adjacent character in my literary world but damn, I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. As a Disney lover (not a Disney adult in THAT way I swear), I loved this twisted take on the classic tale. The Spice ™️! Ate and left no crumbs

I got the special edition because it was beautifully and the description fun- a dark Pan/Hook. The cover and edges are works of art. For a while I thought this was ok. But it got worse the longer it went. The story is ridiculous, the heat underwhelming and Wendy has the personality of wet paper towel.  This was a complete waste of time and money.
