Darling Girl is a dark Peter Pan inspired story that follows Wendy’s Granddaughter Holly and her children Jack & Eden. The general premise is that Holly is fiercely protective of her children, while Pan seems to be the villain of the story and seems to be an ever present threat. 

Overall, I thought that this story was okay. There were some really interesting ideas and components to this story, but there were also some parts that I found to be a bit lacking. I struggled some when it came to connecting with Holly or her children. I also found that the ending was a bit lack luster for me, I really wanted more of the loose ends to be tied up.
