Book three continues the Adventures of Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children, and Ransom Riggs has soon a wonderful job of expanding this Peculiar universe! I absolutely love how the characters are developing. I am so excited to start book 4. ( )

A good conclusion to the trilogy. This series was an enjoyable, easy read. Obvious good and bad guys with great world building for those that like escaping reality. There was enough action to keep you awake, and almost enough almost enough character development to make you care how it all ends.

Might read again one day. ( )

Didn't need to be a trilogy. ( )

Jacob may have a shiny newfound ability, but it’s not as easy to control as he would have hoped, especially when most of the other peculiar children, as well Miss Peregrine herself, need rescuing, and it’s up to Jacob and Emma, along with the peculiar dog Addison, to save them. It’s time to navigate the seedy underbelly of peculiardom, and it definitely won’t be easy.

This book nicely ties up the 3-book story encompassing the first half of the overall series as it exists right now. I was sad that most of the other children were barely in it and that there weren’t many new characters involved either. The story is still inventive and full of action, though. The setting(s) for this book isn’t quite as interesting as those in the previous books—so much time is spent in one dark loop. The inclusion of “drugs” and addicts in peculiardom makes total sense, though it’s certainly sad and pretty appalling when the truth is revealed.

The ending was way too easy, but even as I say that, I’m okay with it. The books up to this point were intense and the characters went through a lot. They deserve something good happening. Overall, the book is even darker than the previous ones, which, coupled with the fact that it has more of an ending than the others that tended to leave on cliffhangers, left me feeling a little less overall excited about the book. I don’t think that’s the book’s fault, though. I’ll sum up by saying that I’m really glad I read these books, but I’m a little uncertain about continuing from here. ( )

This is my favorite one so far ( )
