A Map of Days
By Ransom Riggs
This week's book is Ransom Riggs’ fourth book in the series of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. It is also the last of my blogs for Halloween books this year. The series is a story of people that have super powers that have to hide from normal people, and they battle monsters. These people live in the safety of "loops" where you relive a single day over and over again. Tim Burton even made a film adaptation a few years ago.
This fourth book is kind of a standalone book separate from the original trilogy. The characters go to America, which is different from the 1940's England setting in the original story. I was a bit annoyed by the main character. I found him super whiny and wished other characters would take charge of the plot. The book was alright, it just needed to be a little shorter. Each of the books are over five hundred pages, so like two thousand pages of one story. If you have already read the first three books then you should probably read this book, but if you haven't started yet, then don't.
