Read from November 25 to 27, 2015
This book is absolutely brilliant, beautiful and addictive, but if there is one thing I'll never be able to handle in this life, it's gore and children's horrific deaths. Reading about two of the children being stabbed to death on the neck and chest by some wasp-like creatures in such detail gave me some serious nightmares. As much as I want to know what happens next, I'd much rather read something more cheerful.

"What if Peter Pan was a child thief? A strange looking boy with pointy ears who kidnaps children with nothing to live for and asks them to follow him to "Neverland" - a place where flesh eating monsters are only one of the many things trying to kill the never-aging kids.
This story is beautiful, depressing, horrifying and so addictive, that I keep wondering what will happen next."

The news is one program we never have running on the Telly these days. No way I want my daughter watching all the chaos, mayhem, death, destruction and depravity out there in the world :(
