Review: Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An interesting book. Was not sure about it but have found it to be interesting. It is a little bit fantasy, science fiction, time travel and coming of age. I borrowed the ebook from my public library.

The characters are an interesting group of people. An old man who sees monsters no one else can see, his grandson who he shows a lot of weird pictures to and tells strange stories about, and an off the wall psychiatrist who should be not allowed to practice law. You ask what all this has to do with peculiar children? If I told you that then their would be spoilers. When Miss Peregrine and the children join the story we are well into it.

Writing is tight, and the story seems to wander a little bit, but every bit of it is necessary for later in the story.

My only complaint, the story while it finishes, does end on a cliffhanger to set it up for the next in the series.

I recommend this to all who want a light hatred story .
