A mysterious island. An abandoned orphanage. A strange collection of curious photographs. It all waits to be discovered in "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children," an unforgettable novel that mixes fiction and photography in a thrilling reading experience. As our story opens, a horrific family tragedy sets sixteen-year-old Jacob journeying to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob explores its decaying bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that Miss Peregrine's children were more than just peculiar. They may have been dangerous. They may have been quarantined on a deserted island for good reason. And somehow — impossible though it seems — they may still be alive.

    Beautifully produced but bizarre and felt a bit forced.

    Although I liked it, it did not live up to my expectatoins. My friends kept telling me that it was really good, but I thought that it was just okay. That being said, I am excited to read the next book in the series, Hollow City.

    Really entertaining the whole way though. I listened to the audiobook, and a few things I didn’t love was the narrators pronunciation of “frustrated” as “fustrated” but that’s just a weird thing that bothers me specifically it doesn’t take away from the story.
