The other children have more of a chance to shine as well, both in personality and in ability. As he begins to use his peculiarity with purpose, though, he gets to more involved in the mission. Rather than being completely lost and trying to understand, Jacob is…well, he’s still a bit confused, but there’s a lot to learn about, after all. And in this book, what was set up in the first one really came alive. I find the overall story of the peculiar world inventive and fascinating. I have been enjoying this series so much more than I expected. In a world where everything is already not as it seems, these (not exactly) children will have to decide who to trust while avoiding the further threat posed by the ongoing war. They know the danger will only be higher in London, but they don’t have a lot of options. On the run from monsters bent on killing them, or worse, Jacob and the other 9 peculiar children who escaped Miss Peregrine’s loop head for London in 1940, hoping to find safety and a way to help Miss Peregrine, who’s stuck in bird shape. Spoiler notice: The following review will contain some spoilers for the first book in the trilogy, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.
