The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
5.0
Reading this book really made me feel nostalgic—about my teen years and my fondness of anything related to mythology. And at the same time, this book got me thinking for the nth time, “Wow. The movie adaptation was REALLY different wasn’t it?”.
I love everything about this book; from Percy’s sass, to the well-thought out plot incorporated within the prophecies, to the normal conflicts that these twelve-year old characters are going through, it was so, so good.
And the characters! This is the book where I definitely came to love the trio, Percy, Annabeth, and Grover. Their characters just melded into each other, and through their little adventure, their friendship was forged.

This is a reread! Been wanting to reread the PJO series for quite some time now, and yaayy this is it!
