Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom RiggsMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I was kind of disappointed with this book. Most of the pictures are indeed peculiar but the writing doesn't rise to the weirdness of the photographs. The opening is promising but it kind of tails off fairly quickly thereafter. And the twists that (I think) were supposed to surprise... didn't. (I felt I had to add "I think" to the last sentence. That should tell you a lot about this book!)
By the end of the book, too much was left unresolved. It felt like it was setting up the next book rather than finishing this one. I won't be seeking out the rest of the series.
