i really enjoyed it. it didn't feel high stakes, but i actually enjoyed that part - it felt like the beloved characters finally getting a break and having a comparatively domestic problem to solve.

I wanted to read this book as I loved the series and was still disappointed that I only read this book during the last year, however with the new fans and the series being out, I am glad that Percy Jackson is back for old fans and new fans, and it was a really good read.
This book is about Percy Jackson, and he has saved the world multiple times – battling monsters, Titans, even giants – but these days the modern-day son of Poseidon is hoping for a regular final year at school. Too bad the Greek gods have other plans, and three new quests for Percy to complete. First up: the cupbearer of the gods, Ganymede. Is missing his golden chalice. Not only is this embarrassing, like who do the gods keep losing their magical items? It’s also potentially disastrous. One sip from the cup will turn any mortal into a powerful god. And the old gods do not take kindly to newbies. Can Percy, Annabeth and Grover find the chalice before it falls into the wrong hand? And even if they do, will they be able to resist its awesome power?
I loved being back in this world and all the trouble that Percy gets himself into, but this time it was because he wanted to go to college. This book had a whole range of things going on that we love from Rick Riordan. From the banter and the gods being stupid and lazy to major conflicts and real feeling with Percy just wanted to finish high school and go to college with Annabeth and then Sally announcing she was pregnant and for Percy not to worry or change his plans of not going to California because she is pregnant. I love how the world is getting built with the action like you don’t feel behind and you know what’s going on with how Rick Riordan has a way of describing things in such a youthful way. I enjoyed this storyline and how Percy is growing up and you can feel the pressure of him and the nerves of future.
I love the fact that Rick is wanting to continue this series with Percy having to get two more recommendations and hopefully the series will end with Percy and Annabeth in the sunset and going to college.

I had a wonderful time reading this. It was nice to return to a book from Percy's first person perspective. Percy and Annabeth were cute. Grover was awesome. The three of them were fun and engaging to read about. I adored the characters and their relationships.
