Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children


Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children




This book caught my eye in a store, kind of obvious why right? So I picked it up and instead of storing it in one of my bookshelves and putting it off for a while I decided to start reading it almost immediately. I liked it quite a lot, despite it being a story almost for children (of "children"). As ive said before, love always gets the best of me. And this book has quite a twisted love story, between different times, time-travel and a kinds of incest, still touching and exciting, for it being told and felt by a hormonal, self-contained teenage boy. Aside from that we get a grandiose tales, apparently in denial of a hard cold truth; a grandfather that lived through a lot in his life (World War II) and his way to cope with it (Monsters) and his fantastic friends (the children, yes, they were the most interesting part of the novel or would be, if i wasnt such a hopeless romantic :) )through a story of fantasy and mystery and thrills, in a vintage kind of writing (handwritten letters dated back of the 40s) and amazing photography.
