The somewhat macabre films and books, a little disturbing, jadore. It's always been my hobby. With its promising pitch, Miss Peregrine sold me the dream. And it does not disappoint me clearly. If the macabre has not been very present (we speak still of a children's book), the mood of this first volume my charmed immediately.
A small English island lost in the middle of no-part, an abandoned house and a little disturbing photographs, it's like in a movie worthy of Tim Burton. And dailleurs, that's good, because this is the gentleman who will direct the film adapted from the novel. Exciting, well written, Miss Peregrine is the first novel of Ranson Riggs. A real talent!
If lon does not know what to expect when lon begins this volume, a little disconcerted at the Jacob linstar heroes, we quickly took our brands. The author always reserves its share of twists and turns, providing the reader with an unforgettable experience.
Original, surprising, Miss Peregrine's a book we'd like to see more often in the genre. Finishing this book has been a blessing and tearing both of envy and I burn to know the following, already published in English under the title Hollow City. With a touch of nostalgia, sadness as we close the last page of the novel, totally captivated by its atmosphere, its charm and touching characters.
I'm now looking forward to the film's release, expected next year round and immerse myself in the meantime in the graphic novel already available (in English only), and then in the following.
