Peter Darling

Huh. Not quite sure what to say about this book, which came highly recommended from several reviewers whose opinion I greatly respect. It sure was a very different take on the Peter Pan characters, and several scenes were beautifully written. But it didn't really hang together for me, and the abrupt personality and behavioral changes in the main characters were rendered somewhat awkwardly. I couldn't get past the fact that both MCs killed lots of people, even though the victims turned out to be "not real." I'm a big fan of enemies-to-lovers, but the change from trying to kill each other to wanting to kiss each other was not convincing.

Creative and unique enough that I would consider reading more by this author.
