leo_1609 shared a tip "I really enjoyed it! 😊 I would recommend it. I will say though, I did not end up reading the sequels so take that for what you will"

sydney_jessee shared a tip "I didn’t hate it, but I didn’t love it. It might be because I had my hope high. I’m new to reading since January, and I feel like it took me forever to finish this. I zoomed through Harry Potter and #lorienlegacies. I don’t think I’m going to try the sequels. Also, don’t watch the movie. It makes it worse."

sariinaaaw shared a tip "A spooky,yet Amazing series of books,that you might be uncertain of it at first,but you find yourself so obsessed that you haven't even put the book down till you've finished it,I highly recommend it!!!"

allofakind shared a tip "This was the first book of the year for my book club at school. It's been on my TBR since middle school and thus I was extremely happy to finally get the chance to read it. And boy oh boy, was I in for a treat. I had already seen the movie and thus felt that I knew the story, and though the movie was truer to the book than some others (though they switched the main character's love interest's power to one of a side character for no obvious reason), there was so much more to discover about the main character Jacob, as there always is. Written I first person, the book delves deep into his psyche and presents him with multiple internal struggles throughout the book, from trusting his long beloved grandfather over his parents and therapist to deciding whether he should leave all he's ever known or not. One thing i also loved is that these were true struggles, things Jacob spent multiple chapters through out the book recalling and weighing the consequences over and over, obsessing over making the best and right choice. And that's not even to mention the intense action packed scenes Jacob and the peculiars were thrust into. Everything was described so horribly beautifully, with genuinely creepy photographs laced within. All in all, if up for a reccomendation I would have to say YES YES YES!! I will definitely be reading the other books in the series"

summer_ballard shared a tip "I think this is a YA that people who liked Harry Potter/ A series of unfortunate events would like. The first book gives me this “retelling of Peter Pan” feeling, so much so, the author even compared it to that in the book itself… but definitely more like the original dark Peter Pan story, not Disney’s happier version."

sephine_bondurant shared a tip "It reminded me a lot of Peter Pan and his story, but a more grown up version that is scarier but with better magic. I also enjoyed the individuality of each character."

nina_kravets shared a tip "This one is really cool! One of my favorite books. Even if you watched the movie - it’s fine. The movie has nothing to do with the book. The story is different in the book and it’s really easy to read! If you love Harry Potter and you want something a little more creepy (it is not scary at all) then this is the book you should definitely read!!!"

haley_1021 shared a tip "This book is fantastic!! I will definitely reread ! It’s a little bit confusing at first but once u get into the story you won’t be able to put it down. It’s a spooky read with a bit of a love interest and a huge list of characters you will fall in love with! 1 of 3 books in the story and I think they are all just as good as the last. Book is better than movie"

shantel_cirillo shared a tip "So much of it was fantastic! But what I really loved about the series was the way the author explored how traumatic all of it really was. It’s easy to get wrapped up in the story and forget that these are children, being pulled down to their level and really seeing how devastating all of it was made even more profound"

emma_spingarn shared a tip "kept my attention the entire time. super unique story and definitely recommend, especially if you’re looking to do a series read."

diamond_baumann shared a tip "I haven’t read anything outside of the the Miss Peregrine series! But, out the series Library of Souls is my favorite! Do you have any suggestions?"

abby_settlemier shared a tip "Ooh in this series or in general? I really only read this one of random riggs and loved it but didn't continue. Favorite book overall, heir of fire in the tog series by Sarah j maas"
