A review by booksareamood
The Sun and the Star by Rick Riordan
3.0
I enjoyed this as a light, comforting, PJO universe read. However, you could tell Riordan was sharing the authorship, and that just made me miss Riordan's writing.
The plot felt quite light, with more emphasis on the characters. I think that was the theme of this book - character growth, showing that everyone has light and dark, and representing a mlm relationship. However, I miss having a better plot! They spent more time talking and thinking about their relationship than actually fighting monsters or using their powers. I felt like there weren't any strong motivations for the main villain, Nyx - she just 'didn't like change'.
