Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
at
3:17 PM
Jacob was very close to his grandfather. He would listen to the stories he told and believed every word. Then he started to grow up, those stories began to sound so far fetched he didn't believe they were true. When his grandfather died Jacob saw something he couldn't explain. It couldn't possibly have been real. He started having nightmares and became withdrawn. His parents took him to see a psychiatrist to try and help him cope with everything. Jacob found some clues to what his grandfather tried to tell him with his last breath, prompting him to want to go to the island where his grandfather lived as a child. With doctor's approval Jacob and his father where off for the adventure of a lifetime.
When I started reading this I wasn't very sure if I would like it, but I continued on. And I am glad that I did. It was still kind of an odd story, but it intrigued me. The photos interspersed within its pages were wonderful. It helped you picture the characters and made the story come to life.
I am very glad that I persevered and continued reading.
