Hooked has a medium pace with a fast build in the second half. There's spicy scenes scattered all throughout but a good chunk of the first half is setting up the major plot points and background for the story. It took me about 4 days to finish but had I not been interrupted by life I'm sure I could have got through it in 2. I loved reading through and seeing all the subtle (and not so subtle) nods to the original Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie.
Notable Tropes are mafia, found family, Touch her and die, and morally grey... everyone?
Content Warnings that stood out to me - Kidnapping, Choking, Torture, Murder, Childhood SA, Abuse.
The SA isn't graphically detailed but it is very much there. All the rest? Definitely graphic.
Graphic: Sexual assault, Physical abuse, Murder, Death, Emotional abuse, Gore, Violence, Torture, and Child abuse
Moderate: Drug use, Gun violence, Toxic friendship, and Toxic relationship

Not a book I would have picked out on my own. Couldâve had more romance. Spice was alright, which is why I rated it what it was.
