Challenge: Read a classic Read a book by an author you've never read before
This book was OK.
The concept of Neverland was interesting but it wasn't developed enough, in my opinion. I liked Barrie's comments for the most part, as it seemed he was actually with me while reading. However, towards the end, his comments began to be not only annoying but completely unnecessary since he started spoiling the several details of the conclusion of the story
My main concern was Peter, actually. I found Peter to be very annoying and selfish, which made me not want to root for him and justify Hook's anger towards him a bit. There were no redeeming features in him that justified the obsession the girls and the lost boys had with him. I also hated that he forgot everything that had happened to him, especially the fact that he forgot Tinker Bell, who saved his life several times.
I was expecting more, as it is considered one of the most beloved children's stories.
