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.

Goodreads review by Olivia on April 03, 2023

Never Never is frankly terrible and feels a bit like a fourteen-year-old's first book. That might sound harsh, but I know what Hoover is capable of, and Never Never is nowhere near her best. I was excited about the premise (two teenagers who have been best friends since childhood wake up with no memo......more
