I love this adaptation of the classic Peter pan story. Even with it shining Peter in a more dark, horrid light, somehow I can really see it working. This book is what I would imagine the Grimm version of this story being and it was executed really well. My main problems are the few plot holes that were rushed to be concluded. I feel like there was all of that drama surrounding her business and the resolution was just thrown in there at the end in what really should have been called an epilogue, not a chapter. 

Lovely story!
