内容简介
······
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.
作者简介
······
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.

《佩小姐的奇幻城堡》原著
当初看这部电影的时候就被故事情节和作者创建的神奇世界所深深吸引，机缘巧合买到了这本英文原著，读完彻底颠覆我对电影的喜爱，原来书中的内容更加丰满和引人入胜，每个人物都刻画的生动有趣，文字优美而颇有深度。最有创意的一点就是书中穿插了作者搜集来的很多古怪的旧照片，更增添了故事的神秘色彩，不亏是电影专业出身的作家，视觉感超强。看到Goodreads上对本系列四本书的评分中，竟然是…
有趣又減壓 感覺millard是個小天使 後面的採訪也很有意思
亮点是书里那些黑白照片，看起来很像灵异小说插图。文笔虽然幼稚，用词却不是简单的YA水准，还是需要一定词汇量的基础。看过电影可以看，情节推进不是很快。
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。
