Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
By Ransom Riggs
Reviewed by Shyla

This book I read is about a teenager named Jake, When his beloved grandfather leaves Jake clues to a mystery that spans different worlds and times, he finds a magical place known as Miss Peregrine's School for Peculiar Children. But the mystery and danger deepen as he gets to know the residents and learns about their special powers - and their terrifying enemies. Ultimately, Jake discovers that only his own special peculiarity can save his new friends.

The book has very strange pictures on the cover and in the book. I liked how they describe the pictures before I even look at the images. The certain parts of the book made me very upset for many reasons, plus it was relatable to me in each chapter. There are so many things I love about this book. My favorite character from the first book is Jake, mostly because he is smart, serious, caring, and brave.

The weaknesses in the book were mostly when I knew something bad would happen in some parts, but it slowly describes every single detail making me impatient for what would happen next.

The strengths of the book were how well described the chapters were, and the creepy features they showed while reading. The characters were well made and perfect for the plot. The last thing is that the book is way better than the movie in my opinion.

I mostly recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy/drama. There are two more books after the first, so you can buy the whole collection just to see the whole story! If you like these books, I recommend you read Ransom Riggs other books. That’s all I really have to say about this wonderful book, I hope you enjoyed it!
