Didn’t think I would get so invested in this story. I often forgot that Percy is only 12. I do have to say that there are things he learned pretty quickly which sometimes seemed a bit unrealistic.

I was absolutely shocked about the Casino scene in Las Vegas. I really liked Luke too… And I really want Poseidon and Sally together omg.

This was the first time I've re-read The Lightning Thief in over a decade and it still holds up. The non stop fast pace of the book mixed with the characters sass and wit just makes for a great read. For me this book accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do, so it will always be a 5🌟 read for me. Excited to continue on with the rest of the series.

The first book to an amazing coming-of-age story with a godly twist! I absolutely love this book and it really sets up an incredible and immersive universe for the whole series. I've always been fascinated by ancient gods and demi-gods and this story brings it all in a modern light. Fantastic and fun read! Plus I highly recommend the Disney+ show! It's pretty accurate (much more so than the movies since the author was actually involved lol) and modernizes it all even more!

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!
