This is a new writer for me to read. It seems like a fun series of books.
ReplyDeleteThis series is really good, a little odd, but very good. I like odd.
DeleteI was at Barnes and Noble a few days ago and saw Mrs. Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. I immediately grabbed it after having read about it already. I can't wait to start reading it. However, since I haven't read it yet, I can't say which peculiar I would be.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy it. I love the series!
DeleteThis is a new author to me as well, but I am really excited to read this!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great series. Thanks for stopping!
DeleteIf I were one of Miss Peregrine's Peculiars, the peculiar I would be Emma with the ability to control fire like a spark is amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat would be a good one, thanks for stopping by Sparks!
DeleteI'd have the ability to walk into walls that aren't there. After all, there has to be an explanation for my stubbed toes and random bruises and scraped knees other than klutzy!
ReplyDeleteMy peculiar would to be a major elemental. I'm sure I would have been sent away as a very small child for my volatile temper then having affected the weather patterns and crops for hundreds of miles around.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read the books yet, but I have them on my shelf so I'm not sure what peculiars there are.
ReplyDeleteI read Hollow City too fast.. I'm worried about the peculiar kids, September 21 can't get here fast enough
ReplyDeleteI would like to be able to breathe in water
ReplyDeleteBreathing under water would be cool.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read them yet but if I could be peculiar I'd be able to teleport myself places.
ReplyDeleteCould my peculiar be psychic tendencies? A girl can wish!
ReplyDeleteI would probably be a speed reader or have some other bookish power.
ReplyDeleteThat would be awesome!
