Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs

Enjoyable, though as read as an audiobook - so hard to get past those deplorable English accent attempts. Dick Van Dyke has some serious competition.
Though not fair to rate a book based on its narration.
As a children’s book it’s rather good, entertaining with some interesting plot ideas - the characters felt quite cardboard and the whole thing felt quite drawn out at times, but what can I say - I suppose I’m not the target audience.
I did stay up til 4am to finish listening to this in the bath so I can’t exactly complain too much.
