Obsessed with everything about this series. It's been over a year since I've read this series, but I remember so much about it. Percy is very relatable, and I love all of the characters so much. There's something about the way that Rick Riordan writes that you just immediately get sucked into every book. I would 100% reccommend every one of his books!

I read this over three days (crazy right?) and loved it. Percy is so witty and his comments make me laugh.

I love greek mythology and I’d heard such praise about PJ that I had high hopes for the series. Did not deliver. Much sad.
