Pretty good! I liked the characters and the humor a lot - this is definitely the funniest Riordan book I've read. Will say that I found the story to be a bit slow, and I feel like it didn't have to be 500+ pages based on the pacing. That being said, I tend to like faster stories anyway. Leo is fantastic - he's probably my favorite out of the three. Jason is just okay; I mostly just find his backstory interesting and not the character himself. He got a bit better near the end, but I just found him the weakest out of the trio.

Looking to be an interesting follow-up to PJO!

I think I'm really just getting burnt out on middle grade/younger YA writing cuz this book took me a lot longer to read than it would normally. I still enjoyed revisiting the characters, and I'm honestly surprised by how much stuff I'd forgotten from it. Really excited to finally get back to Percy in the next book, but I'll have to spend some time reading some other things before I can really be ready for that.

I'm sorry, but Jason and Piper are boring. Especially Jason.

I think Bella from Throne of Pages was right: Leo carried the weight of this book on his back.
