Seeing lots of mixed reviews for this one, and I can understand why. However, for me, I thought this was such an interesting twist on Peter Pan and loved seeing the villain/hero arc twisted. Holly was a struggle as a main character, I’m honestly impressed her kids could forgive her. But, overall the book was fascinating and I really didn’t know where it was going next, so I enjoyed the read!
