Surprisingly I really liked this book. Peter was so sweet. And so terrible at the same time. The magic of never land was so exciting. Learning to fly was awesome. But it wasn’t over the top happy. Everyone has to grow up.
I didn't feel like there was a bunch of modern love yourself messages that so many books have. I'm not sure if this is a Christian author but I could definitely see some Christian messages.
There were some parts that were a little too detailed when it comes to infatuation. But overall I liked the way that the love story was handled. I liked how they talked about how everyone has one kiss that they save for a certain person, and we shouldn't just give it to anyone. I also liked the ending when Claire says she needs to learn who she is, without the approval of men. From a biblical perspective, many girls think they are only defined by their relationship status when we must first understand who God has created us to be.
Men, please don't lie to a girl thinking that she'll like you better if she doesn't know your real self. It's ridiculous and never ends up well. I’m the words of Han Solo “they always find out.”
Also, don't try to destroy her world in the name of "caring for her" and "showing her the truth."
