Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
This is a...

This is a trilogy by Ransom Riggs. The first book is Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children and it has become pretty well known recently because it has been made into a movie. The second and third books are, respectively, Hollow City and Library of Souls. Has anyone read or watched them? If not, go read them now! But they are a little bit horror books, so only if you like things like that...

back to the Blab about Books

Yessss! I've read them all! I really loved the books. I let one of my friends read them, and then her GRANDMA started reading them! They both loved them! I watched the movie as well... But I really was NOT impressed.

I enjoyed the books, but I was really dissapointed by the movie. It made a lot of changes that I thought cheapend the emotional weight of some things that happened in the book.

I loved the books, more so because the first one was actually written around the photos included in it and I feel like that is a really unique way to write a book. I have not seen the movie but I have heard people talk about it and from what I can tell it has been changed enough that having read the books will ruin it for me, so I don't intend to watch it.

Ya know, after hearing about the movie I don't think I'll watch it. I also heard about it from my sister and she says it's good, but it does sound very different from the movies.
