A fun reread, I love Percy and I love mythology so what can go wrong. Except now I'm listening to it instead of eyeball reading it myself + it's in Dutch (I generally like English speaking narrators much better).
As with my first read I did seem to feel a tiny bit less enthusiastic than with #1, maybe because it’s not all new anymore? At the same time I loved the nostalgic feeling of being back with the gang. Looking forward to rereading #3.
