The books is ok-ish. Nothing really happens and there's zero character development.
I was waiting for some sort of surprise development nearing the end of the book and then it just ended...
I felt like someone had ripped a few chapters at the end.
Definitely not something I would recommend :/
Nice interesting idea for a story. Development of the main topic happens too fast. Not enough time to build a relationship with the characters. Before you know they are fucked and you couldn't care less because you are not invested in them.
Still a good idea, looking forward to reading future books from this author

It's a decent book. Interesting story about magic and political critic; then turns heads first into a 'Young Adult' hormone crazy borderline "City of Bones" (thankful not as horrible). So far so good; interesting progression, truth be told the plot twists are somewhat obvious.
Up until that point I'm ok with the book. The ending though... feels too rushed; as if the author was running out of pages and had to cram in the end; quite unfortunate.
Do recommend reading the companion Webtoon in WEBTOONs app/website; the illustrations are nice and the adaptation from the book is quite good.

Liu kept the writing style and rhythm from the Three Body Problem in this one.
The beginning is hard to digest and get into the pace that this book has; but once you get into it is a page turner
Lots of seemingly disconnected plots converge at the very end to give the book a whole new meaning
Interesting play in the old time travel story.
The book is interesting; will keep you glued to the pages wondering what next; even though you already know as it doesn't propose any groundbreaking storytelling Avenue.
Still quite interesting and enjoyable
I grabbed this book I think just because of the author; didn't read the synopsis and when I finished one book just took it she started reading it; this, had no idea it was a fresh take on Peter Pan.
This gave me a nice perspective and some surprise when things started to fall into place.
Really nice storytelling (sans the bit of the policeman that ran because "left his stove on"...)
Loved the raw take on the old story and how unapologetic Peter is until Nick makes him see things as they truly are.
Definitely recommended
Funny dumb easy to read book.
Don't read it expecting simmering Uber clever. But does the job of entertaining
Kind of follows the steps of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy in comedy writing
