So a Cyclops and a Satyr Walk Into a Cave…

Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan

This was a book I finished a couple weeks ago, and when I sat down to finally write the review…I couldn’t remember anything that happened in the book! It took me trying to remember the ending, and then working backwards to piece together the rest of the story. Now, this could be my head cold of doom talking, but I think it just means the book wasn’t that memorable. It wasn’t bad, but any means, just not something that stuck with me.

Also shut up, YOU’RE CRYING.” I’ve cooled off since then, and I’d probably need to re-read before I can form definite opinions about specific details (mostly because […]

If you like a good cliff-hanger, then Rick Riordan is the author for you. In fact, the dedication of The House of Hades reads, “To my wonderful readers: Sorry about that last cliff-hanger. Well, no, not really. HAHAHAHA. But seriously, I love you guys.” The House of Hades, the fourth book in The Heroes of Olympus series, picks up right where the third book, The Mark of Athena, leaves us hanging, with Percy and Annabeth stuck in Tartarus trying to get to the Doors of […]
