NOT ANYWAY TO PROMOTE NEIL GAIMAN. I ALREADY OWNED THE BOOK

Epic horror kids books, lives up to the expectations I had because of the movie. Would have scared the hell out of me when I was younger

Knowing Aiden Thomas' other books, this one is rather different than the others, but still a very interesting read. Even without being the biggest Peter Pan fan and just knowing the basic about the story, I still found pure enjoyment, nothing about it left me confused and explained everything perfectly in a way that I could still see major Peter Pan fans enjoying it and not finding it too hand holding

Absolutely wonderful art mixed with a compelling story that had me hooked. I loved the way it handled mental health and learning how to balance it out. It's certainly a story that could help teach a lot of people how to cope with some of their own problems in life; and it's just an added touch that it's queer and about ghosts

Thanks to Netgalley for providing me with a digital arc

An excellent debut that I am so excited to read more from. There is something special about Andy's book that makes him deserving of being an author on everyones bookshelves. I can't wait to see what happens in the rest of this series
