The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

3.0

personally I just know the reason the book didn't hit for me is because I shamefully saw the movies first so I had a general idea of all the events that were going to occur which made it such a harder read than it was actually meant to be (as its not hard to read its for younger kids however I lost motivation to read multiple times). I do want and will continue hopefully me watchings the show with my sister will inspire and motivate me to finish this series (there's a lot of books so i'm a tad bit overwhelmed but oh well !?)

I originally read The Lightning Thief as a pre-teen. It fostered a deep love for Greek mythology and is a sentimental read. I made a goal to reread this series and the Harry Potter series this year because I haven’t read them in over a decade!! Considering it’s April I probably need to get a move on

I feel a little bad for not having read this when I was younger but regardless I enjoyed this SO MUCH, it truly is a story for all ages with so many adventures. I couldn't help but love Percy and Annabeth and Grover, especially Grover I wanted to take care of him forever.

OMG WHERE DO I START?!

THIS WAS PURE PERFECTION, the friendship, the characters, the writing, EVERYTHING

PERCY JACKSON IS OFFICIALLY MY SPIRIT ANIMAL, MY BESTFRIEND, MY SOULMATE call me delusional idc

He’s honestly the most relatable character ever and I wish Camp Half-Blood was real
