This book is action packed, with rich world building and fantastic characters! The romance is very understated and not the focus of the story, which I liked. There will likely be more of the romance in the next book along with more action, and maybe some questions answered. I'm really looking forward to it!
I would also like to comment that this is a great read-alike for Ginn Hale's M/M Fantasy novels! If you feel like you need more Ginn Hale in your life, this could be the answer for you! Or, if you need more Edwards in your life, try Ginn Hale!This book is action packed, with rich world building and fantastic characters!

Loved this. It had a slow start, but eventually you start to understand what happened, and why Peter keeps picking fights with Hook, as well as why both of them are in Neverland to start with. Very cute romance too.

What an amazing book! This was one of the best YA novels I've read in awhile. While this is a fantasy novel involving lupine (werewolves), fae, and others not completely human, it is a story about racism and one young woman's realization that everything she grew up believing about the other cultures was a lie. I appreciated how realistic her transition was from being clueless to eventually understanding what was actually going on in the world. I liked the world building, and the richness of the cast of characters, one of which was asexual (major props for that!), and another side character was gay (I hope he finds a boyfriend in the next book!).
I am now eagerly awaiting book two, and wish it was coming out sooner than next May, though there is a prequel I'll need to check out. :-)
I listened to the audiobook and the narrator was perfect, easily understood, and with a nice voice I enjoyed listening to, even though I usually prefer male readers.
As a librarian who has worked with both teens and adults, I highly recommend this book for both audiences. This is a timely read for everyone.What an amazing book!
