Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs

 The books concept is very unique and the story grabs you from the beginning.It is the tale of young protagonist Jacob who grew up hearing his grandfather's bizarre tales of his youth and his wildy unbelievable adventures as a young jewish orphan in Wales. As a 16yr old, Jacob no longer believes his grandfather's tales, until something terrible happens to his grandfather and he is forced to view things differently. Jacob sets out on a journey to discovery the truth about his grandfather and the place he grew up. This YA story will enthrall and enchant teens and adults of all ages.  The book is laced with weird old photographs,that the author has woven into this wonderful tale.  I am told the author is working on another book .

I give this book 4 coffee cups out of 5.
