Peter Pan

"Fun book. Not exactly my type of book but cute"

"I was surprised to see it was a lot like the cartoon without all the songs. I listen to the audiobook by Jim Dale and he made this book so much greater. Peter was much more selfish and sinister than I would have thought. I enjoyed how the narration of the book talked to the reader, pausing, asking questions. It was very interactive. The writing was magical and somethings were nonsense which I like very much. Another book I wish I had read before the movie which always seems to take away from the original."

"It’s an amazing book, I’m a huge fan of the tv show once upon a time which brings together a bunch of my favorite Disney characters including Peter Pan, but instead they maid him the villain, but anyways this is such a good book "

"I just have always loved the tale of Peter Pan and liked to compare it to the movies. I really like how Peter almost seems like a spirit and how it focuses on being young and naive as something to be envious of. "

"So much depth in this lovely childhood tale. Beautifully written."

"I've always loved the story of Peter Pan, in its many forms - from the Disney version, to Mary Martin's version, to the newer Peter Pan with Jason Isaacs, to the movie Finding Neverland. I read the original when I was a child and was horrified by the word "ass" and recently reread it. Still a great story, great read, and great adventure."

De muchas formas la influencia de la película y la cultura pop que está alrededor de Peter Pan, estropeó mi lectura. Comentándolo en Facebook, al parecer no soy la única que esperaba alguna cosa más o diferente del libro.<br/><br/>Narrativamente me encantó, de haberlo leído antes hubiera resaltado aún más el trabajo de W. Davies en su novela debut, pero a diferencia de Matar a un ruiseñor, estoy segura hubiera apreciado más la historia de haberla leído en mi niñez. Me falta océanos de inocencia para conectar con los personajes. Más que la historia de Peter Pan, con lo que estoy obsesionada y fascinada es con la historia detrás de Peter Pan, Laia Soler hace un tiempo dedicó un video hablando sobre el escritor y lo que al parecer motivó la escritura del libro. Tengo un completo morbo por las tragedias reales, no llegan a conmoverme realmente, por lo que se me hizo mucho más difícil sumergirme en la trama.<br/><br/>Peter Pan no es un libro que me haya desagradado leer pero tampoco ha sido un libro que me haya dejado fascinada, lo que sí es que tengo muchas ganas de leer sus retelling. Tiger Lily lo tengo hace mucho en lista de espera y no lo empezaba porque primero debía leer este. A pesar de todo Peter seguirá siendo ese personaje fascinante para mí, aunque su libro no me haya conquistado del todo.<br/><br/><a href="https://twitter.com/EllieIntheHat">Twitter</a> || <a href="http://el-extrano-gato-del-cuento.blogspot.com/">Blog</a> || <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/EllaZegarra/">Pinterest</a> || <a href="http://ellie-in-the-hat.tumblr.com/">Tumblr</a> || <a href="http://instagram.com/ellieinthehat">Instagram</a>"

"Favorite book 💚"

"I think it's necessary reading if you love fantasy. I think Barrie influenced a lot of other stories. This book holds a special place in my heart. There's an underlying sadness in Peter Pan for the adults reading and you'll understand if you've ever loved someone like Peter. "
