Synopsis: "It's not easy being the daughter of Captain Hook. Twelve-year-old Jocelyn dreams of following in his footsteps - but her grandfather sends her to finishing school instead. When her father meets his unfortunate end, Jocelyn sails to Neverland to avenge his death. But she hadn't bargained on ticking crocodiles, lazy pirates and a troublemaking boy called Peter Pan."
THIS BOOK WAS SENT TO ME IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW!
Hook’s Daughter was quite a nice reading, I’m not going to say that I loved it because I didn’t, but I enjoyed it a lot… it is kind of a retelling of Peter Pan’s story, and even if I’m not the biggest fan of Peter Pan I can say that I liked this version of it !
I liked the way it was written, I liked the characters, I liked OVERALL the narrator… I really liked him, he was so funny and such an entertaining “character” that I really think that it is impossible not to like him.
Even if this book/story was written to be read by children I believe that anyone can read it, I’m not a child and I did read it… I think that everyone should read this kind of books once in a while because we all should remember what is like to be a kid, what is like to imagine other worlds…
So as I said before I’m not the biggest fan of Peter Pan or even of this book… BUT, once again, it was written to be read by children and I think that it is a really good book for them, it was quite entertaining, it was funny, it was a really fast reading… overall it was great, so I decided to give to it 4 starts, because that’s the score I think this book deserves.
