My spoiler saturated thoughts on the books I read
January 8, 2024 – January 23, 2024 That’s it, I can’t do it anymore. I’m stopping reading. I told myself I was going to make it to the end because 1) I could actually read the book club book this month and 2) my husband said I can’t write mean reviews for books I haven’t …

January 1, 2024 – January 7, 2024 Yes! Six stars! My parents ask me what I want for Christmas every year and I just sent them a link to this book on Amazon saying “This is exactly what I want.” Of course, my Dad surprised me and got me the new Percy Jackson book too, …

December 25, 2023 – January 1, 2024 Didn’t do it for me.
December 6, 2023 – December 12, 2023 Yup this one is my favorite. From Jason figuring out he’s more Greek than Roman to Frank literally growing into his potential, each character’s growth is awesome. Especially Leo and Calypso, that love story punched me in the face. Almost as much as Nico literally getting attacked by …

November 10, 2023 – Decemeber 5, 2023 For a book I like this much it sure did take me a long time to read! Given it was a second read so there wasn’t the pressure of “WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN!?!?!?!” But still. I’m still riding my obsessive Percy Jackson kick (the show comes out this …
Continue reading “The Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan, The Heroes of Olympus #3”
November 25, 2023 – December 3, 2023 Ok this is a phenomenal was to learn Greek mythology. Percy’s voice and commentary kept it fresh and relatable. Excellent execution. Stuck the landing. But MAN. Those Greek gods like to rape people! I don’t really have much else to say.
December 3, 2023 – December 3, 2023 That was a fun little story. Quick read. Perfect for a break in the evening.
November 12, 2023 – November 25, 2023 Wow that was depressing! Like he warned us up front and everything but some of these heros either turned into jerks or just had a miserable death. I did like Perseus and the wife of Eros, those had happy endings. It kind of put the Percy Jackson books …
Continue reading “Percy Jackson’s Greek Heroes by Rick Riordan”
November 2, 2023 – November 5, 2023 Spoiler: this one has Percy! I remember reading Lost Hero and thinking “ok this is fun,” then I opened this one and it said “Percy” and I was like “Oh yeah! There he is!” Because I love Percy. He’s my fav. And this book was so fun. Partly …
Continue reading “The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan, The Heroes of Olympus #2”
October 23, 2023 – October 24, 2023 There are over 50k reviews of this book, so I can say whatever I want because the chances of anyone reading this other than my good friend in Utah (hi!) is very VERY small. I guess I should start with the fact that I didn’t finish it. And …
