What it’s about (from Goodreads):
A horrific family tragedy sends Jacob, 16, to a remote island off Wales, to the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, where he finds unusual old photographs. The children, one his grandfather, were more than peculiar, perhaps dangerous, quarantined for good reason - and maybe still alive.
Our thoughts:
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children is Riggs's first novel and I loved it. It's so full of adventure and fantasy that I didn't want it to end. Riggs's second novel of Miss Peregrine's peculiar children titled Hollow City is slated to come out in January 2014 and I can't wait. I' looking forward to not only the tale continuing, but also some more great photos.
We would recommend this to:
Fans of fantasy, horror and fiction of all ages, anyone looking for a good Halloween read
