The Dwarf by Alexandra Dick, Pär Lagerkvist

i read this lättläst in swedish cause the regular one would not have made a sense to me. this was so funny tho i don't remember how it ended (i think someone died) because it was just a little guy filled with unreasonable rage complaining about everything for no valid reason. relatable

reyna and nico's relationship is amazing. especially that campfire scene where they hug. ALSO the part where nico tells percy about his previous crush. percy's reaction is peak comedy. also will and nico. I'M SO HAPPY FOR NICO he finally is aware that he has a whole family. ALTHOUGH that battle scene was way too underwhelming. all that buildup was resolved a little too easily

i'm in love with reyna. also anyone that talks shit about piper because she has a 'not like other girls' syndrome i'll personally come find you and beat the shit out of you. the 7 would've been dead on MULTIPLE OCCASIONS if it weren't for her throughout the last 3 books. she's had so much growth i'm so proud of her
