A review by zoejerusha
The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

adventurous funny lighthearted fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

Funny, beautiful, adventurous. The writing style is attention grabbing. The storyline of
the mother's abusive relationship
was handled with a surprising amount of grace for a children's book, coming from someone who is critical of the blithe writing around women.
