A review by connorsaywhat
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
3.0
I think this might come down to personal taste. I listened to an audio book and the narrator was absolutely horrible so I'm trying not to factor that into this review, but the writing was well done.
I feel like I was expecting more from this. As a huge fan of creepy stuff, super abilities, and all that, I was expecting all of it to be amped up but it just felt a little slow and anti climactic at times. I must give it praise for certain things like plot twists and some characterisation so I think this would be a great book for me as a child, but now its just a little underwhelming with it being such a famous book.
I would recommend you read the book and make your own perception, but I'd say read it yourself and not get the audible audio book. I personally shan't be reading any more of the series.
