oh my god. i LOVED this book. it was absolutely PERFECT. it was perfectly balanced. percabeth, percy and Jason's relationship, how everyone ended up overcoming their differences, NICO,.... oh my goodness, it was MARVELOUS. definitely a 5 star read and, obviously, I will be continuing the series. AMAZING. 
(also trying to ignore piper's wasted potential as an aphrodite girl. she was such a pick me. ugh, internalize mysoginy be like. nonetheless, I loved her)
