I decided I hadn't read a YA novel in a long time, and this one came highly recommended. I was a little leery since the last Peter Pan remake I read wasn't that great. This one turned out to be much better. I thought Ms Hahn did a great job with both Peter's and Tinkerbell's personalities, and also with working in a lot of details from the original book into the new setting. Wendy is pretty emotional--in love one minute, in despair the next--but that is kind of how it is with YA heroines. It is the first in the series, and I am not sure I will read the rest, but I might, (which is pretty high praise for me when it comes to YA). (320 p. 2016)
