This is fascinating to me....



I saw this on an email and can't wait to read this book! I've long been fascinated by old ruins, truly old ruins of ancient European homes and castles that have been abandoned. How interesting would it be to go to Europe and explore some of these old abandoned homes....?
Some might find strange, this pull towards the old, tattered, and decrepit. I find it interesting.
Have any of you read this book, did you know about it? I can't wait to get it.

It's called "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children"....great name, no?
Written by Ransom Riggs.....

Love this. I've always been attracted to going through old houses, you know, the vacant ones that smell a little musty and are ready for demolition...glean what you can. Can you imagine a castle or a house in Europe. wow, the treasures and history one could gather. If you don't ,ind, if you pick up the book, can I borrow it?

Wow Gail. The book sounds interesting!
My "Big Dream" has always been to go
explore the castles in Europe. Old abandoned homes would be fabulous as well. So much history to see first hand. Let's go!
Have a great weekend :-)
