I was so happy when I saw Percy's POV back I missed it so much in The Lost Hero. Overall, a very fun time, I really liked Frank and Hazel as protagonist, "welcome to Canada, idiot" is a line that's seared into my skull it was so good, and just a fun time reading these books for the first time as an adult.

4.0

It was hard for me to get used to this book with the dynamic between Percy, Hazel, and Frank. I was just missing Annabeth and Grover too much! But I love those characters individually, and I came to love them together. It also took me a while to get used to camp jupiter. I have too much loyalty for camp half-blood.
