Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie

Peter Pan I was honestly not expecting all the preamble with the parents. Pretty much every adaptation I’ve seen completely cuts them out. Also Peter’s forgetfulness. Boy definitely has some high-powered ADHD, probably aided and exacerbated by all that fairy magic.

I honestly found the rest of the book just kind of whatever. It was enjoyable enough and a quick read for me. I’m not in the headspace to sit here and analyze it. Plus, I’m absolutely certain I’ll just be retreading what others have said in the regard.

I definitely would have enjoyed Peter Pan more had I gotten around to reading it when I was younger.
