Hooked - Emily McIntire
I never expected to enjoy this book so much. I'd be lying if I said it didn't take several tries and restarts before I finally surrendered my mind and set sail into a uniquely written book.
Let's dissect it.
I am a die-hard Peter Pan fan and have always had a soft spot for Hook. What can I say, I'm a sucker for bad guys. My first failed attempt, I went in thinking this book was very cheesey and didn't grab my attention. So I tried again and ended up getting lost in the pages.
I was completely engrossed in the story as it unfolded. The gore, the descriptions, and the sick erotic fantasies that played out on the pages made me wonder about my own sick desires. This book has everything. The fear, the desire for more mayhem, the lustful desires had me in a trance...
This is not a book for the faint of heart. If you're looking for a happily ever after lovey-dovey romance novel, look elsewhere. This is for the sick and twisted minds of villains. Those who have given up on fairytale endings. This is for fans of Grim, Dark, and devilishly spun fairytales.
I had trouble distinguishing between JM Barrie's original story and this one, but they are not the same. It takes you to a darker side and transports your mind to a realm of euphoria in a sick and twisted way that lasts until morning.
