i have never in my life finished a book so quickly.
read this book. now. especially if you have dyslexia or adhd.
i strongly believe you won’t have any negative emotions towards you’re adhd or dyslexia when you finish this book.
being dyslexic myself this series took the anger and resentment i felt towards that part of myself, chucked it into tarturs, and switched it with something that made me feel special. because i would get to go the camp half blood and all though who took it upon themselves to pick on me wouldn’t.
the characters only get better and better the further you go into the world of rick riordan, so much so you wish you were friends with all of them.maybe minus luke and octavian lol
