In 2015 and early 2016, I was mad about the book Harry Potter. I was so interested in it that I pretended to be a wizard myself, only to realize that I was still a ‘muggle’. I was really upset when I learnt that there were only seven books in the Harry Potter series. As I read about other inspirational books, I got to know about the story, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. I knew then that it was the best book for Harry Potter fans to read next.
Although I was unlucky in finding the book, I did find the movie. It made me so crazy about being peculiar again. I felt like watching it again, and again, and again. So I kept on watching it, and I did not care about any other story again.
Later, I got to know that the second novel of the same story has been released. Now, I was lucky. I found the book in a book store. The novel is named Hollow City, though it does mention that it is the second part of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. Now this movie became one of the greatest movies I have ever watched in my life.
