B. Zelkovich reviewed Hollow City by Ransom Riggs
Review of 'Hollow City' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Slower than the first, but enjoyed their time in WWII era London. It was really interesting to follow Jacob through that.
Hollow City is a 2014 dark fantasy novel and a sequel to Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children written by Ransom Riggs. It was released on January 14, 2014 by Quirk Books. The novel is set right after the first, and sees Jacob and his friends fleeing from Miss Peregrine's to the "peculiar capital of the world", London.
Slower than the first, but enjoyed their time in WWII era London. It was really interesting to follow Jacob through that.
Unfortunately, it continued from where book 1 left off. While I found the beginning of the first book very interesting, the rest of the series thus far is more juvenile. Just a group of weird characters trying to escape, with one thing after another happening that they overcome. Nothing subtle. I gave up about 1/3 the way through.
