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.
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.
封面就让人看得很不安,书里的照片更叫人汗毛都竖起来了。这些照片都是黑白的,不清晰的,人物的样子怪怪的,眼神也充满诡异。与这一切形成截然对比的是作者的帅,作家帅成这样,有点不应该。为此,在作者的介绍里,都特别说明优越的创作力和俊俏的外表让作者在欧美迅速串...
評分看过第一步全本的,我就想问一句,开始的时候不是说超能儿童不能出时光圈,就好像那个苹果一样,一出来,在很短的时间内就会老去,可是为什么在后面他们出了时光圈却没事呢?还要到处去进入别人的时光圈。这不是很矛盾吗
評分蒂姆是我最崇拜最喜欢的导演之一,他简直就是一个传奇人物,据我所知,目前还没有他的一部影视作品在大陆出版纸质书呢,《怪屋女孩》是第一本!当然,人们可以不知道他,但不能不知道他执导的电影哦!!!一旦知道了他的作品,对他本人已然会有一个了解,他和强尼那么要...
評分 評分开始惊悚,中间温馨,后面越来越现实。这本书我用一个晚上读完的,开始的心理还是挺害怕的,特别是翻到那些诡异图片的时候,心里总是揪着一把的感觉。随着夜越来越深,很是担心情节越来越惊悚、自己越来越害怕而不敢睡觉了。熟料从雅各布进入时光圈之后,故事却越来越温馨了,...
亮點是書裏那些黑白照片,看起來很像靈異小說插圖。文筆雖然幼稚,用詞卻不是簡單的YA水準,還是需要一定詞匯量的基礎。看過電影可以看,情節推進不是很快。
评分太無聊瞭吧……
