I started this 40 day program last week, Monday, and am only on day 8. While I don't think the program is overly demanding of me or my time, I find that I am really enjoying digging deep and taking my time. I know it will take me longer than 40 days, and I am really looking forward to it. I also think I'll come back to it and do it again in the future as I see this as a first step.

It's been transformative for me. Will definitely read it again and again.

I'm at Chapter 10....need a break as my heart hurts after Chapter 9. There have been no response enjoyable moments than sad, that's for sure, but the sad are so sad. I'm in love with the family...seeing them hurt is such a struggle.

Really enjoying this retelling of Peter Pan this far. Its dark and captivating and surprising! Did not expect to find Hook--or Rowan--so endearing.

"The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid..." - Mr. Tinley.

Mr. Thorpe is so unagreeable!!

Light & fun so far!

My heart can't take so many dreadful events at once. Just when I think the worst is over, it gets worse. The fact that many of the events are based on real stories is what gets me.

I can't continue with this book right now. I don't when when I'll be ready for it again. I will finish it eventually. The writing is just amazing.

Wow...this book has broken my heart several times now...it is so heart wrenching...I don't know if I'll continue as stories about rape and physical abuse aren't easy to read about.
