A review by klymko
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs

2.0

I had heard good things about this book and bought the kindle version on a whim while stuck in Houston for 5 hours due to flight delays. It starts off interestingly and contains a number of compelling ideas, but the story is rather superficial and none of the compelling ideas are explored (this is especially true of the ideas about time). The characters are one note and, frankly, rather boring, which is disappointing for a book about "peculiar" children. Overall, if I had to choose again, it would not be this book.
