Fans of Ransom Riggs’s young adult fantasy series, Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children Series, have long awaited for the next installment. In the fifth novel, The Conference of the Birds, readers continue to follow Jacob’s journey to not only figuring out his place in the peculiar world, but also figuring out his family history that’s tied to the peculiar world.
Like the rest of the series, Riggs uses one-of-a-kind, vintage photos that work in harmony with the text of the book. The way the photographs are used and incorporated into the story bring the novel to life in a unique way. Riggs continues to engage readers in the peculiar world by being so descriptive in his settings and characters. He also weaves together a wonderful plot that keeps you wondering what’s going to happen next.
While this wasn’t my favorite novel in the series, I found myself completely reengaged in the peculiar world and the wonderful cast of characters Riggs has created over the past few years. Jacob’s eagerness to find out more about his grandfather and the loyalty he has to his friends is endearing and makes the story that much more enjoyable. The gang’s travels across America and different time periods definitely keeps the story interesting and adventurous.
Those who are familiar with the series will definitely enjoy returning to the world of peculiars. With the cliffhanger ending from Riggs, you can bet that I will be anticipating the release of the next book in the series! I can’t wait to see what other adventures Jacob and the rest of the peculiar gang get involved in next!

Dipping into this series again is like joining back up with old friends. We’re back with Jacob and the gang, plus a new addition called Noor, who I love.
The plot moved along smoothly, with some revelations and twists.
I did lose focus around the end, when I thought the story was over and then it continued, but overall it was an enjoyable read!

Die Story hat mich ein wenig enttäuscht. Das Charakterentwicklung war meiner Meinung nach nicht ganz rund. Auch die Beziehungen zwischen den Charakteren haben sich Teilweise ein wenig erzwungen angefühlt und unnatürlich. Die Story war mir zu sehr Schlag auf Schlag und ich fand der rote Faden hat sich nicht wirklich ergeben. Dieser Teil hat mir bisher am wenigsten gefallen. Ich hoffe aber, dass der letzte Band dann zu einem guten Schluss kommen wird.
I really did think it was good but I hate that it’s like a part 1. It is definitely a transitional book to get you to the ultimate end (if that’s what the next will be). I hate to be left hanging right in middle of some action where you can see clearly what the character needs to do next....but will have to wait a year or so to read a hopefully satisfactory ending.

It wasn't my favorite in the series, but I did still really enjoy it. The cliffhanger at the end, is now begging me to read the last book to find out what happens.
