Review
I’ve never read anything quite like the Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children series. While not every aspect is 100% unique, the manner in which the story is written twists these aspects in a completely new direction. The depth of this world is amazing as well. As soon as you think you understand it, something new comes up that throws everything off its axis. I also love the way that descriptions pair with the images in the book to truly immerse the reader into this world. If you’re looking for a series that blends horror, history, and superhuman ability, this is the series for you.
Yours in love and literature, Page.
