Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
My pick this week is Never Never by Brianna Shrum
Here is the Goodreads synopsis
James Hook is a child who only wants to grow up.
When he meets Peter Pan, a boy who loves to pretend and is intent on never becoming a man, James decides he could try being a child—at least briefly. James joins Peter Pan on a holiday to Neverland, a place of adventure created by children’s dreams, but Neverland is not for the faint of heart. Soon James finds himself longing for home, determined that he is destined to be a man. But Peter refuses to take him back, leaving James trapped in a world just beyond the one he loves. A world where children are to never grow up.
But grow up he does.
And thus begins the epic adventure of a Lost Boy and a Pirate.
This story isn’t about Peter Pan; it’s about the boy whose life he stole. It’s about a man in a world that hates men. It’s about the feared Captain James Hook and his passionate quest to kill the Pan, an impossible feat in a magical land where everyone loves Peter Pan.
Except one.
It's not a secret that I love all things Peter Pan and Neverland. The quickest way to have me add a book to my wishlist is to tell me it's a Peter Pan retelling. This one offers up a unique twists in that it's Hook's perspective from the sounds of it, and there is the tease that perhaps Peter Pan is the evil one!
Luckily I don't have long to wait (especially since I have an ARC teasing me from my bookshelf) as this one is released next month.
