I really liked the change of art style in this book compared to the ones earlier in the series. I feel like the appearance of the characters more accurately represent their descriptions from the original novels. Overall, I liked this book. I think it was an appropriate length to capture the story and it gave enough detail that the story still maintained it’s original integrity.

These graphic novels get better as the series continues. This one is my favorite so far because of its ability to capture so much depth and emotion that was in the original novel.

This brought back so many nostalgic feelings from when I read the novel version as a child. I loved the Percy Jackson series and reading the graphic novels has brought the characters to life in a whole new way.

This was a super quick read. I thought it was very cute and I liked the storyline. The only issue I had with it was the unnecessary comments about the main character’s body/weight.

I really liked this book. Honestly, I liked it more than I was expecting to. It’s a textbook romance novel. I don’t really like miscommunication tropes so that’s why it wasn’t necessarily a 5 star for me but overall the book was really enjoyable.
