Safe to say that Rick Riordan is one of the best authors to ever exist and every book I read of him makes me want to read more. It’s so wonderful how he’s able to creature characters with their own unique and deep personalities and make them work together and towards a shared goal. It’s simply amazing.

4 hours 39 minutes - Definitely the best book of this series so far - the plot is so engaging, and the seven POVs work so much better when there is a clear, definitive split between two groups of them. The character development is amazing, making me see characters I only ever tolerated (Coach Hedge, for example), and made me feel for them, and want the best for them. It was very suspenseful as well, I found myself figuratively holding my breath at many moments of this book, and there were some really emotional messages throughout. Amazing read.
