And the flying?! This book reinitiated my childhood dream to fly. The descriptions and prose in this book were so beautiful! I felt swept into the world, living and breathing the air of it. Well, at least until things started to fall apart… It was still serious and dealt with some tough thematic ideas, but Dust had a very lighthearted tone. This book was a really nice break from the angsty, seriousness of your typical YA book. The truth behind this fairy tale is about to unravel everything Claire thought she knew about Peter Pan–and herself. The girl who fears her own destiny is on a collision course with the boy who never wanted to grow up. Grounded in London and hunted by his own Lost Boys, Peter searches for the last hope of restoring his crumbling island: a lass with magic in her veins. Peter Pan is having a beastly time getting back to Neverland. Now Claire’s desperate search points to London… and a boy who shouldn’t exist. The truth about Neverland is far more dangerous than a fairy tale.Ĭlaire Kenton believes the world is too dark for magic to be real–since her twin brother was stolen away as a child. Several cardboard-paper-cuts later (those things hurt!) I was able to sit down and read Dust! *cries* I got tired of waiting for things to get unpacked and dove into a pile of boxes, looking for the book. And then the book promptly gathered dust while it sat in a box for a month during my family’s move.
