Another cute, mythos based set of books to readby Rick Riordan! This was a cute, and fun series full of adventure and action. However, I didn't find this series to be anything special. I enjoyed the characters and the fact that it featured Egyptian Mythology, but it felt like it missed the mark. I think part of that started when Sadie began to fall for Anubis, I found it just didn't feel right, not only for her character, but for the story. Even the twist didn't make it better for me. Apart from that, I loved Sadie, I thought she was so badass and a great fighter. Carter was a likeable character, very serious and mature. Bast & Bes were definitely my favorites of this trilogy. These are definitely worth the read for the fun, and adventures but this trilogy felt like it was missing something.

It's a classic Rick Riordan's book. Easy to read, full of hope and jokes but the characters go through so much dark man
