what a book. i loved this and the whole series and can’t believe i’ve only just read them now in my twenties! i’m glad i got through all these before the show starting as well, is it also correct to guess there’s more books of percy on adventures?

5.0

i really didn’t know what to for a third book in this series but wow it was crazy and so much darker then the other two. 

the more i think about it the more i think this is my favourite in the whole series because wow it was so tense and dark. pip was a bit annoying with her thoughts at some moments but honestly i understood how because of the situation she was in up until the end.

this book and the whole agggtm series is also definitely one of those booktok talked about series that is worth reading especially if you’re into crime and mystery.
