Welcome to Litsy!

My #guiltypleasure is reading different versions of Peter Pan, children‘s, middle school, YA, adult versions it doesn‘t matter. I can‘t seem to grow-up out of it.😉
I‘ve never understood why liking something popular is basic or bad. Guilty as charged because I enjoyed this popular 90s band and picked this song because it linked to my book choice. 🧚 🪝

Thanks for the tag @wordslinger42 💙

A story about Cpt Hook in Neverland! 🏴‍☠️

Alias Hook is one of our Bookclub picks for this year. I had a lot of fun with the story and was glad it was an adult book and not YA. The author gives depth to all the characters even her version of Pan.

Started a new book during my daughter's riding lesson today (And finished a roll of film in that beast of a camera!)

Have yet to read it, but it‘s a retelling of Peter Pan from Hook‘s point of view.

Take it or leave it

Thank you @Marmie7 for everything for #Sffs I love it all!! I‘m super excited to read Alias Hook, I have never heard of it but it sounds so good! The other two have been on my want to read list for awhile! Also the Funko of Drogon is adorable and I can‘t wait to add him to my shelf!! I also can‘t wait to use the notebook it‘s so gorgeous!Thank you! Also thank you @Avanders for hosting the swap! My first swap was amazing!

I love Peter Pan and I love retellings. I have only read two retellings, Alias Hook, and Everland.
I thought it would be fun to read more Peter Pan retellings, and then rank them on my blog.
So if you have any recommendations for me, that would be great. :)

Here is what I‘m working on today. I don‘t think I could ever see hook any other way than in Once Upon a Time which was on for #7years
#LaborDayReads #ReadingResolutions

These are the plan and whatever else we pick during the month. #TheFirstDay brings on a new list of books.
#SeptemberTBR #ReadingResolutions #NewHogwartsAdventure

Starting a new book today! I may see hook as he was in Once Upon a Time. 😉 #maps

I am definitely feeling spoiled again. @Avanders I don‘t even know what to say!!!!! Thank you so much. You sure are keeping my shelves stocked! #CoffeeBeanBookClub

@Librarybelle Thank you so much!!! It got here safely! And I‘m so excited to read it! I think I‘ll start it right away! Thank you for the lovely card! #allthehugs #Litsypeepsarethebomb! 🤩👏🏻🙌🏻 ☠️

Purely #blameitonlitsy ...I never go to Dollar Tree. Never. But, I couldn‘t pass up an opportunity to visit and see their book selection. The store was closing, so I had to grab quick. I‘m amazed and will now probably stalk all of the nearby Dollar Trees to see how many books I can grab at 1.00 a piece. #bookhaul

Oh my goodness, oh my goodness. @BookwormAHN you spoil me so. More Lisa Frank coloring (you can never have too much) plus more coloring and a Peter Pan retellings. I have heard lots of good things about this book. Gonna be honest, I won't read it for a while but that is because I am finishing up another Hook retelling. Plus handmade BMs. I love everything and thank you for the time and thought put into it. 😁🎅🏼🎄😁🎅🏼🎄#secretsantagoespostal

Awwwwww! Adult Hook has a bae of his own...and I'm still single!

I really enjoyed this book but I definitely was not expecting the adult scenes 🤣🤣🤣 that caught me off guard but shows like OUAT prepped me to be ready for fairytale sex life. Their dialogue and relationship was so cute but also much more adult than YA normally has.

The old racist terminology was pretttttttttty cringey though... *Shivers grossed out*

Coffee and starting a new book before yoga

Thank you @sprainedbrain ! I am excited about my #theretellingbookswap gifts. We were in sync with our Maguire picks. I had never heard of Alias Hook and now that's on the top of my #TBR. I've been wanting Heartless for ages. Good stalking skills.Thank you!!!!

A beautiful retelling that showed both Peter Pan and Captain Hook in a new light. Absolutely loved it ❤️

Perfect day enjoying the sunshine with a good book ☀️☀️

A great beach read! Perfect for fans of retellings and Captain Hook. Alias Hook provides a new perspective on the infamous Captain Hook and his relationship with Neverland and Peter Pan.

Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

“The timbre of her voice alone, so well remembered, so undiminished by time, is enough to rouse every part of me capable of standing, a helpless tide rising to her moon. I so crave her touch, I might fling myself at her like a drowning man upon a spar”

“I‘ve had saucier kisses, before, craftier, but never anything that seared so deeply into the very heart of everything I thought I knew, everything I thought I was.”

This book was so amazing! I absolutely loved it. well-written, excellent character development.
The other side of Hook, as well as the other side of Pan...

#toread Been hearing good things about this book #hookedonhook #onceuponatime

I loved this adult fairy tale, focusing on Captain Hook and the endless monotony of his daily existence. Both the characterization and setting are so rich. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Caveat: There was the use of a certain word to refer to Neverland's indigenous population that I basically hated. Peter Pan fans will know the word I'm talking about.
