---

percy said "look, i didn't want to be a half-blood." and was like i'm gonna make history!

re-reading "i am 12 years old" at 18 was more jarring than i expected it to be. also, george washington's mom been real quiet since rick dropped the lightning thief...iykyk

all in all, a brain chemistry-altering, fantastical, mythological, and adventurous banger of a book that's filled with sarcastic one liners that will always hit.
