Narrative As Books Tales of the Peculiar (Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children #0.5)
Before Miss Peregrine gave them a home, the story of peculiars was written in the Tales. Wealthy cannibals who dine on the discarded limbs of peculiars. A fork-tongued princess. The origins of the first ymbryne. These are but a few of the truly brilliant stories in Tales of the Peculiar—known to hide information about the peculiar world—first introduced by Ransom Riggs in his Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children series. Riggs now invites you to share his secrets of peculiar history, with a collection of original stories, as collected and annotated by Millard Nullings, ward of Miss Peregrine and scholar of all things peculiar.Rating Based On Books Tales of the Peculiar (Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children #0.5)

"Again! Another! Again! Again! Loop-the loop to double its skin!"Welcome back Peculiars. As a warning, if you are not a peculiar, you must stop reading and go. We don't have time for the weak minded. Good? Good!Received a chapter sampler at BEA Chicago and met Riggs. Reading that sampler left you clawing and crying for more. Once I got my hands on this, the world righted itself on its axis and all my worldy problems disappeared. Here is a collection of ten short peculiar stories.

I love the design of the book. It must be the most beautiful book I own. Also, the stories were very whimsical and fantastical, and they gave so much background and history to the Peculiar world. It felt like being a child all over again and reading a story book full of fairy tales.
3.5 star rating overall, rounded up to four for Goodreads. Tales of the Peculiar is a collection of short stories, from Ransom Riggs, the author of the Miss Peregrines series. In Tales, we are introduced to some more of Riggs imaginative creatures, and learn the background of some of the peculiars that we know from his full-length novels. This novel is very short, with each tale being told (of course) by another peculiar by the name of Millard Nullings. Through Nullings narration, we hear about
A great supplemental read to the Peregrine series!Some short stories are better than others, in my humble opinion, but they all give you sort of a history and background of peculiardom based in their folklore. If you know me and my reading taste, I shouldn't enjoy this series as much as I do - I generally do not like YA, nor do I like fantasy. But I loved these books. Perhaps it's the historical elements, vintage photography (in the series, not this book) and peculiarity. Looking forward to
SO GOOD! I couldn't put it down! Tales of the Peculiar is a really quick and easy read. Seriously, you might spend like an hour on it? Maybe less? Maybe more? Either way, it doesn't take a lot of time out of your day to sit and read it. All of the short stories are unique in their own way. One made me cringe so hard but that mostly because it's not the life for me. They are all have really cool and unique names and definitely made me fall even more in love with this series. I'm kind of upset
