Rating- 9/10
Age-12+
Summary- Jacob Portman, a 16-year-old boy, goes to Wales to find out the truth of his grandfather's past after he was murdered by what Jacob thought was a make-believe creature. When he arrives, he finds the home where his grandfather and the peculiar children stayed. That is where he meets Emma, a "strikingly pretty" girl who can control fire. She takes him to meet Miss Peregrine in a time loop set back in 1940. Jacob enjoys hanging out with the other peculiar children, such as Millard, who is invisible, and Bronwyn, who has incredible strength. Then Jacob is told some mysterious stories of strange killings in the pub he's staying at, and warns the peculiar children. When they tell Jacob he is the only one who can see the "hollows" or "hollowgasts", the monsters that killed Jacob's grandfather, Jacob knows he is the only hope they have for safety. Sorry this is from wikipedia I'm going to do my own summaries though
Review- Ok so personally I loved this book. I read it in one sitting. It was funny, crazy and had a great adventure. I loved the characters and i thought Jacob and Emma were so cute (even though *spoiler* she was Jacobs grandpas girlfriend). Anyway I thought it was really funny and had a GREAT adventure. I would recommend it to just about anyone.
