怪屋女孩：灵魂博物馆
刚刚读完了 Library of Souls - The Third Novel of Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children
我读这本书其实是为了学英语，但作为一本冒险小说，设定还是很有新意的，尤其是那些照片，还有男主的女朋友！
不过，这种故事是典型的英雄之旅（Hero’s journey）的模版。读到最后，回忆主角经历的种种，恍若隔世，还是蛮温馨的。
接下来是我的笔记，见笑了。

“And so you shall,” said Emma.
“Make that Extremely Intrepid,” Addison said. “And handsome.”
“Done,” I said.这两个应该算是英式幽默吧，Addison Intrepid and Handsome！
“Let’s not get carried away, Mr. Portman.”
Miss表示消除记忆，男主表示顺带消除小时候搞坏妈妈车的记忆。hahaha
If you won’t let me remove your soul the easy and painless way, then my hollows would be more than happy to do it. They aren’t known for their bedside manner

“If you think we’re going to play any role in that,” said Emma, “you’re out of your gourd.”
