I got chills down my spine from this book! This is a brand new, edge of your seat, thriller for ages 12+. This is definitely one of my favorite Twisted Tales so far. His plans will cause the end of Peter Pan, and all of Neverland with it. Nevertheless, they have to work together if they want to stop Hook, who turns out to have drastically dreadful plans, plans that Wendy and Tink would not expect, even from Hook. Tink isn’t the fairy godmother-type pixie you would expect, she is definitely more on the snarky side, but Wendy and Tink do become friends. Along the way, she meets a sweet fairy- excuse me, I meant sassy pixie- who goes by the name Tinker Bell. Unbeknownst to her, perils lie there, some more dangerous than others. Wendy has to escape from Hook and venture into the untamed wild of Neverland. Hook is a very tricky pirate, and has a plan of his own. On this journey, Wendy basically becomes a scullery maid for the pirates, with only the dream of Neverland preventing her from practically jumping overboard and swimming away. In exchange for passage to Neverland, Wendy gives Hook Peter’s shadow. In desperation, Wendy calls for Peter’s worst enemy, the nefarious, and slightly insane, Captain Hook. At least she doesn’t talk to mice, though…right? Wendy feels that if she can escape to Neverland, all her problems will be answered. Her parents believe that a girl her age should not be fantasizing about silly stories. Things take a turn for the worst when her parents discover her stories and want to send her to Ireland. Even her brothers do not believe in Peter Pan anymore! Four years is a long time, and is starting to lose hope. After all, she has had his shadow for four years. Wendy knows that he is real, and is positive he will come back to drab London. Writing about Peter Pan’s exciting adventures is much more fun.

After all, tea parties are SO dull and dreary. But at the same time, she is still grasping onto her childhood dreams and adventures. Wendy Darling, at the age of sixteen, has moved out of the nursery, gone to fancy tea parties, and learned how to be a proper young woman.

Straight on Till Morning by Liz Braswell.

Darkness roams freely, for not only do dreams come true on Neverland, nightmares also live on this whimsical island.

“ What if Wendy first traveled to Neverland with Captain Hook?” Filled with characters old and new, you may just learn, Neverland is not the happy childhood fantasy depicted in the original animated movie. Written by Liz Braswell, one of my personal, favorite authors, Straight On Till Morning takes a daring new twist on the beloved Peter Pan story. Welcome back Disney fanatics, I hope you are as excited for a new Twisted Tale as I am. If you follow the second star to the right, straight on till morning, you will arrive at my next review!
