A review by allymcevoy
Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie

5.0

This took longer than I wanted it to take, but finally, after adoring this story since I was little, falling in love with the characters in the Disney adaptation, I finally got around to reading it. Though some aspects are very outdated in today’s generation, J.M. Barrie has captured so thoroughly and beautifully what is it to be a child, and amplified all of that in Peter Pan. The language and imagery is stunning, and captivatingly childish. Pan is capricious, fickle and difficult, but although you may not like him, you have no choice but to love him.
