Peculiar

I recently read a book by Ransom Riggs called Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. I really enjoyed this one, although it's kind of out there.

The story is interspersed with a lot of interesting old photographs of "peculiar children." The photos belong to the main character, Jacob's, grandfather. He assumes that the photos, along with the stories his grandfather tells about the people in them to be fake. He soon learns otherwise and sets off on a journey to discover the truth.

Here is the book trailer.


This book has the potential to be really creepy, but thankfully the author takes it in a different direction. An exciting, mysterious, and intriguing story. Check it out.
