I loved this book. 5 stars! Favorite out of the series.

So I think this book was very funny,  but it did have its moments. I love how we get to see the main character grow, especially with the love interest. There are many great side characters we've gotten known throughout the series. The author does a great job at certain hard situations that have to be faced too, for example when someone will fall in battle. 

I thought this was super iconic. A got a little emotional a few times. This book is medium to fast paced, and it's even got a map. 

Can I just say, Nico Di Angelo? Yes? Do we all agree? Give the guy a break. Love him.

If you're thinking of reading this series, definitely give it a shot. Big chance you're gonna love it.

Not gonna say much except that this was the best percy jackson book imo. Everything came together and it was so well-written, I read over half the book in one day because the story gripped me so much I couldn’t stop

The battle of the labyrinth remains my favourite but this is a close second. You can really see how Percy develops as a person and everyone around him is impacted for the better. This book is so well written and even though I was rereading it so I knew the plot twists, a few still caught me by surprise. Incredibly enjoyable read. I can't wait to start the next series.
