2016 Book Challenge: {A Book You Own but Haven't Read}

Miss Peregrine's Home 
For Peculiar Children
By Ransom Riggs

I was super happy about the fact that I was able to read this book when Fall was FINALLY Here! For real though, FALLELUJAH!!!
Anyway. I had super high hopes for this books. And I don't feel that I was disappointed by the book. I had heard such mixed reviews on this book. A lot of people loved it and considered it as their favorite book! While, others hated the book. 
Now. To be fair, I am pretty easily entertained and it doesn't take a lot for me to enjoy a book. I can honestly only think of one book that I have 'Hated' and that was "The Good Earth." Part of me feels that if I were to read that book again, I wouldn't hate it. But it was a bit much for a ninth grade, teenage girl. 

Anyway, That was a bit of a tangent. 
I found the pictures in this book great and I LOVED how much they matched the story. I'm not gonna lie, I actually gasped a couple of times while reading this book. And I thought that the plot twists were fantastic!  
 Overall, I gave this book 4.5 stars. I thought that the story was well thought out, it included a small love story (Which is always great) and it kept me wanting to read more!
I don't know how "Scary" I would call this book, but I still think it is a great fall read.

Until Next Time...
Peace & Blessings! :)
