2. Go to page 34 in your book or 34% in your eBook and share a couple of sentences.
3. Would you like to live in the world that exists within your book? Why or why not?
Hollow City by Ransom Riggs (Book 2 of Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children)
"As we ran, I found myself wishing that the fog which had plagued us at sea would return again to hide us.  It occurred to me that it had very likely saved us once already; without the fog those balloons would have spotted us hours ago, in our boats, when we'd had nowhere to run.  And in that way, it was the one last thing the island had done to save its peculiar children."
As much as I have an affinity to the macabre, I would say no.  This world is a bit scary with real monsters and life and death consequences.  Also they are stuck in 1940 (literally stuck in time) in the middle of WWII which added real life danger in addition to the monsters.
