As a kid, Jacob formed a special bond with his grandfather over his bizarre tales and photos of levitating girls and invisible boys. Now at 16, he is reeling from the old man's unexpected death. Then Jacob is given a mysterious letter that propels him on a journey to the remote Welsh island where his grandfather grew up. There, he finds the children from the photographs--alive and well--despite the islanders’ assertion that all were killed decades ago. As Jacob begins to unravel more about his grandfather’s childhood, he suspects he is being trailed by a monster only he can see. A haunting and out-of-the-ordinary read, debut author Ransom Rigg’s first-person narration is convincing and absorbing, and every detail he draws our eye to is deftly woven into an unforgettable whole. Interspersed with photos throughout, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children is a truly atmospheric novel with plot twists, turns, and surprises that will delight readers of any age.
Hi, I'm Ransom, and I like to tell stories. Sometimes I tell them with words, sometimes with pictures, often with both. I grew up on a farm on the Eastern shore of Maryland and also in a little house by the beach in Englewood, Florida where I got very tan and swam every day until I became half fish. I started writing stories when I was young, on an old typewriter that jammed and longhand on legal pads. When I was a little older I got a camera for Christmas and became obsessed with photography, and when I was a little older still my friends and I came into possession of a half-broken video camera and began to make our own movies, starring ourselves, using our bedrooms and backyards for sets. I have loved writing stories and taking photographs and making movies ever since, and have endeavored to do all three.
拿到书时,看到封面上那个看似离地的女孩和脚下一团浓墨似的“阴影”,我的第一反应是“这图PS得好烂……”阅读之后才知道,这张封面连同书中出现的一些其他照片都是作者兰萨姆从一些旧照片爱好者那里征集来的,照片拍摄的那个年代似乎还没法PS……好吧,也许之前的想法有些偏...
评分在飞机上看的, 睡了看, 看了睡, 但到了最后, 开始放不下手了。 毕竟还是会在意这个故事最后怎么“圆回来”。从这个角度来说, 其实不够高级。其实, 从创作初衷来说, 并不是说有个故事在作者心中呼之欲出, 而是因为作者喜欢收集一些比较奇特的照片并对照片中的人物(特别...
评分由于提前看了《佩小姐》,所以看书的时候很有画面感,所以读起来毛骨悚然的哈哈~ 说说电影和书的区别吧,应该说电影版还原了80%第一部小说的内容,唯一的区别就是小说中和男主角jacob以及他爷爷谈恋爱的是玩火女孩emma,而在电影中,虽然隐约体现了jacob,emma和enoch的三角关...
评分文Shirleysays 我有位朋友喜歌唱,但是只会唱开头部分,一到副歌准闭嘴;另一位朋友喜唱歌,但是只唱高潮部分,前半部一准儿地是伴奏音乐。俩人都是绝顶的麦霸,被授予“半首歌王”的劳动称号,俩人凑一起算是把一首歌能给整健全了。你别看这事儿搁在唱歌上行,大伙儿还当个...

我觉得这本很棒!!!大概我就是好这一口,还超出我期待,为了保留悬念电影都没看????中英加audiobook 并且算是断断续续看的跨了几个月,主要是为了练习听力,这都没有削减它的精彩程度,真的很喜欢,就算逻辑有漏洞有些情节好猜
评分看之前完全不知道这是一个坑。。但是真的挺好看的????就找第二本来看咯
评分大海里的一滴水
评分对于YA来讲还可以。新手作者,文笔比较幼稚,尤其是最后剧情的高潮和结尾对续集的引入实在是太欠火候。再就是男女主角的爱情实在是发展太快,或者说是没有发展就在一起了。
