This was a good book. It was wonderful to see some of the characters again. With Grover, I know there will be smiles and laughs. I used several tissues.

i’m sobbing so hard rn jfc that HURT

JASON😭😭😭😭😭

‘this, i thought, was being human. standing on the tarmac, watching mortals load the body of a friend and hero into the cargo hold, knowing he would never be coming back. saying goodbye to a grieving woman who had done everything to help us, and knowing you could never repay her, never compensate her for all that she’d lost.’ BRO

This for me was a huge changing point in the series, as this is the book where it all actually gets real. Like damn, this is SERIOUS.
