I didn't love this as much as I usually do, especially considering this is usually one of my favourites in the series, but I think I was in a bit of a funk reading this. I'll definitely be continuing my re-read of the series, though.

I can definitely see why this is so many people's least favourite in the series, it's definitely one of the least "epic" of Percy's adventures and it's pretty short. There's also some language used in this one that I know would never fly nowadays and I'm surprised I didn't pick up on it all the times I re-read this. As a kid, SoM was one of my favourite books in the series and honestly, I totally get what kid me was thinking because this was so much fun! I loved getting to see Percy develop as a character and I had a blast meeting new characters at Camp Half-Blood!

I am so glad I decided to reread this. We meet so many of the characters in this book and you can really appreciate the Grover and Percy bromance more in this novel.
