I am only reading this series bc of the movies coming out and also bc I really want to read the shorts stories with Percy but god, at what cost? this took me more than a year to read and I read the last 50% in less than 24hrs but it was utter torture.

I normally enjoy Rick Riordan but this book was not it...I do not know if I will be able to read the other two book and I really want to pick up Magnus Chase after but is it even worth it? I do not know.

The Anubis/Sadie shit made me uncomfortable af, was it only me? idk, he is like a thousand years old and she is like twelve, also I do not like how the author portrays girls or how he narrates from their pov (even in third person) I did not like how he portrayed Annabeth in heroes of olympus...maybe that's just me, right? 

whatever, I am off to reading the poppy war, what a contrast!

'kay, I'm out
Bye

Manchmal muss man sich eingestehen, dass man zu alt ist. 
Ich konnte die "Stimmen" von Carter und Sadie nicht unterscheiden, entsprechend unausgereift empfand ich die Erzählung. Das Buch ist grundsolide und definitiv empfehlenswert für Kinder- und Jugendliche.
