talefromthewoods 's review for:
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
by Ransom Riggs
Really enjoyed this. Love the idea of the photos alongside the text - reminiscent Tiger Lillies vibe... which I LOVE
Did find the voice wobbled for me - sometimes felt like it was trying to be contemporary/street talk then almost seemed to get more literary in style...maybe that was purposeful...with the shift in locations/time/environment? I just sometimes felt the writing had been through no editing, first draft feel, and then felt - wow - what great writing, editing...
But the story is great.
The movie was very, very, disappointing after reading the book.
