Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs is the third book in the Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children series. Jacob discovered that he has an ability that might help him safe is friends from the wights. But he has no time to train it, because his friends need rescuing now. He goes on an adventure with Emma that changes their lives forever.

This book was really interesting to read. I was fully intrigued in the plot! However, I can't say a lot more than that I liked it, without spoiling to much about the series. I like the friendship between Jacob and the other peculiar children and the friendship and bond between Miss Peregrine's peculiar children. It's heart-warming. The pictures in this book were not really creepy. I am still traumatised from the pictures in the first book...

I really like this series so far. Maybe I will buy the other books as well. It's kind of sad that I started this series so late. I would have LOVED it in my teenage years.

I ADORE these books, everything about them, has made this series one of my top 10 all time favorites.

I think this was a perfect ending for the original trilogy. I was a little upset near the end, and was rooting for Jacob to pick a different choice but, the way it worked out in the end; all but made up for that.

I love the characters every single one of them. I honestly couldn't choose a favorite. The twists this book had I never saw coming, especially about the villains. If you love/like morally grey villains this is the perfect book for you.

We get to explore new places in the Peculiar universe and we meet a lot of different characters. With so many characters, especially new ones, it can be easy for a character to feel 1 demential and not real. The way Ransom writes his characters makes them feel like real people. Every character has depth no matter how small the character.

A thrilling third installment of the Miss Peregrine series, whose twists and revelations are even more exciting than ever before. This book is anything but predictable. Any time you think you know what's about to happen, it takes an entirely different and much more interesting turns. The lore of peculiardom grows increasingly more complex and, though it is at times difficult to follow, a little extra attention to the details goes a long way. The conclusion is also enormously satisfying, but I won't spoil it for those who haven't yet had the pleasure of reading it!

I really enjoyed this book. The world and characters are just so peculiar and different that it makes me happy. I love reading something different that is unlike anything I’ve ever read before. 

I would highly recommend this book and now I’m looking forward to reading Map of Days, hopefully soon but I think I’m going to take a break from this world for a while.
