“Second star to the left and continue until morning.”

The Lost Darling by Bailey Black is a dark romance Peter Pan retelling.

I fell in love from the title alone and fell deeper from the very first line. 

I’m a huge Disney fan and complete trash for anything Peter Pan and this didn’t disappoint! 

Wednesday was amazing as an MC and I loved her dynamics with everyone. And Peter. 

I loved having the dual povs and I enjoyed getting Peters head as well. 

Overall, an amazing job and I sincerely hope there’s more in this universe cause that ending was NOT FAIR.
