Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs

Library of Souls (Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children, #3)

by Ransom Riggs

The New York Times #1 best-selling series 

To find their friends, Jacob, Emma, and Addison go to Devil’s Acre, a crime-ridden Victorian underworld, but they uncover an operation far more sinister than they imagined . . .

In Victorian England, Jacob discovers the Library of Souls, a hidden collection that holds the key to saving his peculiar friends and the entire peculiar world. Inside the library, he encounters a ymbryne, a powerful ancient creature who possesses the ability to control time and manipulate souls. 

With time running out, Jacob must unlock his own peculiar abilities and confront his darkest fears to rescue his friends from the clutches of the malevolent wights. 

Filled with heart-pounding action, breathtaking twists, and the power of friendship, the third chapter of the Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children series is a thrilling adventure that tests the limits of courage and the strength of peculiar bonds.

It's always sad when a series ends especially this one. This one went out with a bang and this was my favorite book. Everything from the characters you love, to the new ones you meet they were all just so amazing. The chapters were longer, but are broken into scenes for easier reading. The writing style and pacing of this book was so well done! I would recommend this series to anyone who has a love for off-center books, as at places this series is definitely off center.
