I was on a journey that I never would have expected. I felt so tense while reading the book, it was as if I was there. I never knew what was going to happen next. The book started off at a slow pace, but then things sped up about 100 pages in and I could not put the book down. This is one of my favorite books that I have read and I cannot wait to read more of Ransom Riggs books.
“Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children” is a fantastic book. This book by Ransom Riggs is a very unique book in which the story is intertwined with vintage photographs. These photographs are all in black and white and the actual color of these photographs are left to the readers imagination. These photographs enhance the story a lot more, then if Ransom Riggs would have just placed the words in the book without the photographs. When reading “Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children” the reader is taken on a journey that the reader may not expect.
The book is very different from a lot of books that are categorized in the young adult (YA) genre of books because there is a great story that Ransom Riggs created that is alined with vintage photographs. The ending of “Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children” is a cliffhanger and it leads the reader to want to read Ransom Riggs next novel within this series which is titled “Hollow City: The Second Novel of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children”. Even though this book starts out a little bit slow, once the reader gets to the first 100 pages the story really gets interesting and the reader is emerged in the story. Overall, “Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children” takes the reader on an adventure that will make them look at the world differently and will peak their imagination.
