I loved this! The build up to the battle is insane. Everything about the labyrinth is so cool, the changing, the locations, the interesting challenges and monsters! Definitely a step up from the previous, I love them as well, but this one just hits it out of the park in every aspect! 

The hold up of the 5-star is the Percy and Annabeths whole ordeal when she's mad but wont say why and Percy doesn't understand anything. I love to read about their friendship/flirting not them fighting and not telling each other important things.

Also love Nico and Rachel as well but Nico, my bby!!!

It took me a bit to finish this book but I really liked it. So much was going on and it has just left me feeling like I need to pick up the next one right away.

another great installment to percy’s adventures with his friends. this time percy has to go into the labyrinth to find multiple entities and stop kronos’s attempts at defeating olympus. 

this was a fun read and had great stories and tidbits about various greek mythological creatures. i did not know about

hundred hands ones

, which was interesting to learn about as well as others. 

great book, entertaining and fun. excited to read the 5th (and what i remember being the last) of the series, although i hear there is a 6th book now too.

This one’s my favorite in the series so far!! I feel like most of the jokes genuinely hit, the fast scenes and snappy writing worked in its favor, and nothing was too scary for me. :) Well done, Riordan! I do think they could have done a few things a little more effectively, but I was impressed with this book!
