This dark romance attempts to infuse Peter Pan into a modern setting, but the execution feels uneven. While the premise is intriguing, the plot often feels contrived and relies heavily on the characters' past traumas for emotional weight. The dialogue can be repetitive, and crucial conversations often occur off- page, leaving the reader feeling disconnected from the characters' inner lives. While the book is a quick read, it ultimately lacks the depth and nuance to truly captivate. Despite these shortcomings, the story has a certain charm, and fans of Peter Pan might find some enjoyment in exploring this unique reimagining.
