I liked this book...didn't love it.

I loved the premise of this book though. A retelling of Peter Pan in modern day California...ummmmm yes.!

I think that the idea was amazing and the author executed it good enough to a point where I enjoyed it but I definitely think it could have been much much better.

The relationships were just too quick and there wasn't much character development. Definitely no relationship development either. And that's pretty much why I only gave it a 3.5.
I loved Jas and wish he would have been in the novel more.

And I wish the story would have had a better ending. The ending was just sooo predictable.

Overall, I would have to say that this book is definitely good for a quick read...our a good summer read.
