To all the holy deities I liked this one. So here they come reasons to skip it. 

1. You have a romantic picture of geniesmin a bottle. Like all genies need to be the helpful-Robin-Williams-voiced-Disney ones.

2. You put greek mythology on a pedestal and don't want to challenge it's place in the spotlight. 

3. You think that two girls demanding to be called heroines is to much feminism.

4. You can't stand the sarcastic and witty side kick pet.

5. You find twelve year olds that quote Batman, The Matrix, Lord of the Rings and Friends to unrealistic for a fantasy novel. 

Be aware there isn't one reason I would skip this gem  of a book for. Like always take this list as serious as you want. Have fun.

I really, really loved this book.  Chokshi has great humor, and it was wonderful to read something in the same vein of Rick Riordan's work.  I enjoyed Aru and Mini so much, and I can't wait to read the rest of the series!  The story is well plotted, and the characters are really well-written.
