When I have purchased the first volume of the Miss Peregrine’s series, honestly, I was a bit skeptical. Then, I have loved the characters, their stories, the settings, and couldn’t stop reading - I wanted more.

Hollow City is great!
Once at the last page, I was so curious I couldn’t wait to go ahead reading!

Third and last chapter of the first trilogy of the Miss Peregrine’s series.
We are travelling through times and events - from the WWII to the present, and all the knots get untied. We get to know more about Miss P, her story, and - at the end of the book - you find yourself realizing that true friends might move heaven and earth to help you out.

I have also loved the pictures!
I can’t believe how perfectly they match the story line and show up at the perfect time!
Wow!

And when you thought it was all over... here we go again!
So, leave behind the WWII and Old England fascinating landscapes, and jump into the ‘60s... across the USA!

And to add a little spice, get ready to step into a completely new world of chaos.
Here there are no Ymbrynes watching over their Peculiars, protecting them and running the time-loops to keep them safe. No way. It’s a new day, Jacob’s and his friends will be on the tracks of the American Peculiars to safe, but will soon realize that not all of them want to be saved.
A new main character pops up: Noor!
She looks fantastic and amazing from any point of view, and... No Spoilers!
Get to read this!

Chapter #5 - here we go again!

Jacob and Noor are on the run, the old Peculiar’s World in England is collapsing under the political pressures on the Ymbrynes’ back, and we move from time loop to time loop across USA.
Of course there is romance, of course there is action, of course someone is gonna depart. And you dive into this fantasy world, you imagine it, you live in it - breath with the other characters, share food with them and, above all, feel what they feel - when you get to the last page and... where is the rest of the book? Do I really have to wait for another year?

5 books and I am still so eager to read more!
Love this book, loved the whole books series.
Can’t wait to have book 6 into my hands!

“Homo sum, humani nihil alienum a me puto.”

Questo l’incipit del libro. La mia citazione preferita, e direi che va già benissimo così!

I racconti sono bellissimi - alcuni li conosciamo dai libri, altri sono inediti. Qualcuno ha un risvolto un po’ grottesco e raccapricciante - come del resto lo sono anche alcune favole dei Grimm.

Bellissimo!
È un modo stupendo per addentrarci ancor meglio nel mondo degli Speciali, delle loro leggende, delle favole della buonanotte.
Consigliatissimo!
