Peter Pan

J.M. Barrie's writing made me feel like I was right there with the characters, in these worlds, but at the same time, Peter, Wendy and the gang also maintained a certain level of mystery about them. Especially Peter. I was right there in the room with the characters, experiencing things with them, but was still left wanting to know them better by the end.

It was really cool to see how different, and how much edgier Peter Pan was in this original book, as opposed to the Disney-fied version we know today. On his way to Captain Hook's boat, when he's going to rescue his friends, Peter swears this "terrible oath" ... "Hook or me this time." Wow. That's commitment.

Peter is crazy, and reckless, and insensitive, and a cold blooded killer who "forgets them after I kill them" as he tells Wendy near the end, after she tries to jog his memory about Captain Hook.

Even with the buffer of a narrator, I still felt like I was able to get close to the characters' hearts and minds.

Who doesn't love Peter Pan? This was my favourite book as a child and still one of my favourites today. This is a book full of soul and adventure. Once you hop on board you won't want to get off until you're done. You'll feel like a child again.. It's an amazing book.
