#20: Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children

I have been waiting to read this book a long time.  I loved the "creepy" old photos that were used to go along with this story.  I felt it was a unique way to read the book.  Some of the pictures really brought the descriptions to life.

I book starts out with Jacob trying to decide whether he believes all the adventures/stories that his grandpa told him about growing up.  He later finds some clues that his grandpa left for him and decides to go exploring the island with the children's home his grandpa grew up in.  Lots of adventures and surprises are in store for Jacob.

Like I said earlier, I really like the photos and descriptions.  I really enjoyed most of the characters in the book too.  I'm not really into sci-fi and and monsters, but I loved the mysteries surrounding the story.  It's not a book for everyone, but I enjoyed it.

Up Next:  The sequel, Hollow City by Ransom Riggs
