Hollow City By Ransom Riggs
Review by: Mayte VDB
4.5/5 stars
Hollow City is the second book, following "Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children." It starts off right where the first book left off.
Hollow City was possibly even better than Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. The First book was great, but perhaps a little bit too slow moving at times. This one had more action and many good dialogues. Part of why I think that this one was better was because the reader gets to know the characters more, and gets attached to them. This is important since the characters are pretty much the main part of the book. The spooky black and white photography scattered throughout the book worked wonderfully well with the story. It helped the reader to imagine what the many peculiar people, creatures and places look like, together with reading the imagery. The story itself was also marvellously though out, with witty links to other parts of the book and the previous one. Overall the book is mysterious, funny, witty, dark, and it was always hard to put down.
I am very much looking forward to reading Library of Souls. This is the last book in the trilogy by Ransom Riggs. I very much recommend reading this series during the time of halloween.
