 Eh? I have no strong feelings on this one whatsoever. Feels similar to The Hidden Oracle, which I wasn't a huge fan of. Uh... there were some good moments. But I remained mostly apathetic to the storyline. 

(Light spoilers just for character appearances.)

I mean, I liked seeing Leo again. He's still one of my favorites. Calypso is, uh... fine. Yeah. That's about it.

Not bad, but I didn't love it. Overall, marginally better than its predecessor.

I just can’t. I didn’t enjoy book one, I’m not enjoying book two. I don’t care what’s happening in the story and don’t care to continue even just to see what happens. I also dread picking this book up, sigh when I see how many pages I have left, and can’t seem to remember what I’ve read.

11/21 reread review:
I only picked this back up because Rick announced a book About Nico but it picks up at the end of this series so obviously I have to finish the series so I can read the long awaited Nico book. Now I’m still at this moment in time have a physical copy but I grabbed it from the library is an audiobook to help me speed through it. I finished it in two days, and really didn’t like it all that much… ugh. It feels so weird for me disliking a wreck book so much let alone a wreck series but I’m just not Vibing with the series is at all which is also kind of ironic/almost funny because I just bought his daughters of the deep book that just came out I bought it on pre-order but I’ve told myself I can’t pick that one up until I finish this series soooooo here we go.
