Hello
there! Happy New Year!
I’ve
seen Peter Pan retelling everywhere these days. I don’t know when this started
but since I’m not the biggest fan of Peter Pan (don’t know why) I still haven’t
read any of them. Anyway, this book sounds fantastic and I can’t wait to read
it!
Check it
out!

Wylie Dalton didn’t believe in fairy tales or love at first sight.
Then she met a real-life Peter Pan.
When Wylie encounters Phinn—confident, mature, and devastatingly handsome—at a party the night before her brother goes to juvie, she can’t believe how fast she falls for him. And that’s before he shows her how to fly.
Soon Wylie and her brothers find themselves whisked away to a mysterious tropical island off the coast of New York City where nobody ages beyond seventeen and life is a constant party. Wylie’s in heaven: now her brother won’t go to jail and she can escape her over-scheduled life with all its woes and responsibilities—permanently.
But the deeper Wylie falls for Phinn, the more she begins to discover has been kept from her and her brothers. Somebody on the island has been lying to her, but the truth can’t stay hidden forever.
sounds good.....love the cover!!!

DeleteHmmm, now this sounds like a different sort of retelling of Peter Pan from the ones I've seen around as of late! I'm intrigued! Thanks for putting it on my radar Lis!
ReplyDeleteIt does sound very different. I hope it's good!

DeleteI keep saying that I want to read some Peter Pan retelling, but I have to read the original first! Can you believe that I have never read it? I have only seen the stage play and movies. This does sound different though. :)
ReplyDeleteI can believe it because I haven't read it either! Need to fix that soon!
