Book 3 was more inline with book 1 in the sense of character development and action. It was fun and creative series, but a bit dark.
I was little gutted when I found out that Library of Souls was the final book in the Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children series as I have loved reading the books, they are fantastic books, with lots of adventure and the vintage photographs really help the reader imagine what the peculiars looked like.
Jacob and Emma has a lot to deal with in this book. Their friends has been taken by the wights and it was looking less likely that they would be able to save their from having their second souls removed.
Devil’s Acre was not a very nice place at all, it was like a prison loop where all the outcasts from peculiardom were put.
Jacob and Emma did manage to get some help and Jacobs powers were increasing since he managed to take control of one small hollowgast. But there were a lot more hollowgasts in the fortress, how will he get control over all of them?
This book was full of twists and turns and just when you think it may all start going right something throws a spanner in the works.
It was a very good addition to the series, I was hooked and I was sad for it to come to an end.
Ransom Riggs has a way of engaging his audience and I hope that he will right more books in the future.

I liked this book more than the previous book in the series, and I liked how this one wrapped things up sufficiently enough that I felt like I could dip out of the rest of the series. My favorite things about these books were the interesting abilities and old photographs, but I think it was just a little too middle grade for my taste. I probably would have liked the series a lot more if I had read it during my middle-high school years, but the characters just felt a little too young and flat for me in general.
It's okay. I really like the first one, and it will probably always be a fav.
As the series goes on, I don't like Emma. ugh.
I do love all the old photographs though.
