\"Miss
\nFrom Goodreads
\nA mysterious island. An abandoned orphanage. A strange collection of very 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 abandoned bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that the 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. A spine-tingling fantasy illustrated with haunting vintage photography, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children will delight adults, teens, and anyone who relishes an adventure in the shadows.

\"Miss<\/a>
\n Miss Peregrine\u2019s Home for Peculiar Children<\/a> by Ransom Riggs<\/a>
\n My rating: 2 of 5 stars<\/a><\/p>\n

Great concepts, quite a few loose elements. Lot of long arcs that will drive a movie or series. Audio book voice was okay but some of the voices were annoying. Not sure will keep reading. Will watch movie now and see if they go further than this starter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
