Return to Neverland, but make it a queer romance (that also removes all the problematic racist bits from the original)! The story's clue is in the title: Peter Darling. And if you're a Captain Hook fan, you're gonna love this romance! I knew this book was gonna be good when I read the dedication:

This book is for every villain who ever inspired a queer awakening, and for every queer child who ever saw a piece of themself in the enemy.

It's also for Simone, who is definitely a villain of some kind.

I wish I had this book nearly a decade ago when I was diagnosed with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome. C-PTSD is a psychological disorder that occurs with prolonged, repetitive trauma over the course of years in a context where there is little to no escape. I found myself on an eerily similar journey with Foo, who provides a personal and thoroughly researched account of her healing journey. Be sure to give yourself space to heal and process this memoir. And as Foo promises, there is a happy ending.  [Clover]
