I just started reading Ransom Riggs’ Miss Peregine’s Home for Peculiar Children. I love the title. I also love the first line, which is
“I had just come to accept that my life would be ordinary when extraordinary things began to happen.”
I’ve been feeling just that way for the last couple of years. 🙂 I wonder what it means for this narrator? Stay tuned!

I remember years ago some pastors would translate 1 Peter 2:9 as “peculiar people” but it really means Chosen as opposed to odd or unusual. So you could say we are all chosen by God for some purpose in life. Finding that purpose is a challenge.
So far, it looks like the home is for Jewish refugees in WW2…
Interesting. The Hebrews were also known as the Chosen People. Well it looks to be a story of survival and triumph. Keep us posted.
Now there is a monster in the wood, and Grandpa is dead! Things are getting exciting…
Oooo weee!! Me too! I love monsters, horror and scary stuff!
