Title: Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children
Author: Ransom Riggs
Rating: Middle Shelf
This book is a good read. It is a tad bit on the creepy side so beware of you are a night reader like I am!! It is also a little slow in some parts.
Miss Peregrine's Home For Perculiar Children is well known for the pictures in the book. They really elevate the story to a different level and help you get into the mindset of the characters.
This is the first book in the trilogy. If you have read the others please let me know what you think I'm the comments. I am unsure about continuing the series or not.
Miss Peregrine's Home For Perculiar Children is from the perspective of a teenage boy named Jacob. Jacob grew up listening to his grandpas crazy and exaggerated stories of the past. But what if these crazy stories were true? Jacob must go and explore the island that his grandpa spoke of to find the truth about the past.
I read this book with my school book club and recommend it to other book clubs as well! Also it is a good time to read the book because Halloween is right around the corner and the Tim Burton motion picture is coming out soon!! Once I see the movie I will do a compare and contrast post.
Go get a copy now before heading to the movies!!! If you HAVE NOT read Miss Peregrine's Home For Perculiar Children please stop reading now! I do not want to spoil anything!! Happy reading!!!!!
Hello people who HAVE read Miss Peregrine's Home For Perculiar Children!!
I just have a few thoughts and questions.
My first is about the twins... There were 2 pictures in the book about them but they were not characters!! I want to know their story!! If you have read the other books are there mentioned in there too?
Also I think it's a little weird that Emma and Jacob like each other, but it makes since if he is like his grandpa. I kind of want them to work out in the end because it didn't for Emma previously.
I also loved Millards investigation of the town through everyone and everything's perspective!! I thought that was a great detail!!!!!!
Please let me know what you think in the comments!!!
Happy reading!!
