Quali mostri popolano gli incubi di Abraham, il nonno di Jacob, unico sopravvissuto allo sterminio della sua famiglia di ebrei polacchi? Sono la trasfigurazione della ferocia nazista o piuttosto qualcos’altro, qualcosa di vivo, presente e ancora mortalmente pericoloso? Quando una tragedia impossibile lo colpisce, Jacob sa che non può più rimandare: deve scoprire cos’è successo a suo nonno e, soprattutto, cosa ha visto, o crede di aver visto, con i suoi stessi occhi. Non gli resta che attraversare l’oceano e trovare l’inaccessibile orfanotrofio inglese che durante la guerra ospitò Abraham e altri piccoli orfani ebrei. Ma per raggiungere quel luogo avvolto nella leggenda non ha molti indizi, a parte i vecchi racconti del nonno e una sparuta collezione di bizzarri fotomontaggi d’epoca.

4.0 Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
It's more like 3.75 stars actually. The beginning was fantastic and the end even better but in the middle of the story the main character Jacob spent some time [spoiler] in a time loop [/spoiler] , so the story was dragging quite a bit.

4.0 Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs (audiobook)
Series: Miss Peregrine #1 I was pleasantly surprised by this book. What little I knew of it sounded weird, so I didn't know exactly what I was getting into or how the main character's story would tie into that of his grandfather's. I'm just trying not to look at some of the questionable internal l...

3.0 Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
Good use of simple language to tell a surprisingly creepy story. Use of found photographs elevates a solid mid-list title to something special.
