The blog Bookshelf Fantasies declared, "For a fairly slim book (my edition had 190 pages), it sure took me a while to finish this classic tale of pirates, treasure maps, and treachery. Treasure Island wasn’t a stay-up-all-night, can’t-put-it-down read for me — but it was definitely entertaining and well worth reading."Take A Peek Book Review: Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson - Lisa @ Bookshelf Fantasies - 15 February 2015 - Bookshelf Fantasies - Retrieved 27 September 2021
