I have a few mini reviews from wildly different authors. All are absolutely excellent and highly recommended. I’m starting with Lost Boy: The True Story of Captain Hook by Christina Henry. Wow! This recommendation came from a colleague and it did not disappoint me one bit. It’s a dark retelling of Peter Pan and the origin story of Captain Hook. In this not so happy fairy tale, Peter is a spoiled narcissistic psychopath. Not a doctor here…but I’m going for it with the psychopath Continue Reading
