Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie
5.0

“To die will be an awfully big adventure.”

Aghhhhhh. My heart. What a tender, tragic story that is also a blast at the same time. The writing was captivating and funny. I was grinning from ear to ear reading this! 

Peter Pan is one of my favorite characters. He is selfish, forgetful, fascinating, and wild. But he also has a heart (sometimes). After all, he is just a little boy. He has had and will have adventures that we will never be able to dream of, yet he will never experience the adventure of growing up. 

I am going to go watch the 2003 live action Peter Pan for the 1,000,000th time and cry my eyes out. (Jeremy Sumpter/Peter Pan was my first crush).
