I somehow managed to avoid any spoilers for such a popular book and I'm so glad. It wasn't anything like I expected — I thought it might be overhyped but I really enjoyed it. Not someone who is normally a fan of first person perspective it really worked for this.

Evelyn Hugo isn't a character you love or hate — in the end I think she is what she wanted to be. The story of her life isn't black and white and you can both think she's selfish at times while also understanding why she does what she does.

Definitely one I'd recommend and read again!

I have always been interested in reading theories about Captain Hook before Peter Pan and I was so excited to see this book and read it — and it didn't disappoint! It was different enough that you don't feel you're just reading about the island we see in the film but also has enough little hints to things to come. It was a bit of a slow start for me but once you get about 1/3 of the way in the story really picked up the pace and I really enjoyed it.
