This young adult horror story revolves around Daniel Crawford as he attends a summer program at a building that used to be a sanatorium. As expected, strange events begin to happen, and secrets begin unfolding.
While the photographs add nicely to the plot, unfortunately the book lacks originality. The characters are typical, and the plot is predictable. The events seem to follow each other without giving readers the time to speculate their own theories. Because the plot lacks originality, it leads to no creativity from users.
There is a sequel to this book, however, after reading the first book in the series, I wonder if the other books would be better.
I loved Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children, and this book was on my "To Read" list due to a Read-Alike list I have. I really appreciate your annotation! Now, I'm strongly reconsidering reading this book.
