With the exception of grief, the content is pretty minor and should be okay for most kids 13 and older

This book is definitely slower paced than expected, but well worth it. I wasn't quite sure how to feel about the Peter/Wendy romance at first, but it grew on me. I also think I knew the twist earlier than revealed, but it still shook me in a good way. This is one of those books that you just can't put down once it gets going.

This book made child me very happy. Peter Pan has always been a favorite of mine, so to see this story reimagined in such a new and complex way, adult me was loving every word! Even though they are inspired by the characters we know and love, Aiden Thomas does an amazing job by still having these characters be something completely their own. I adore this book!
