The Battle of the Labyrinth by Rick Riordan

The books in this series definitely improve the further you go in. This one starts quick and never lets the pace go, the story is so captivating and the themes are somber and serious, yet still entertaining.

As good as it was on the first read.
I love the pace of this book, as it starts on a slower side, but then picks up once the heist is in motion, and then moves so quickly it’s hard to keep up with it.
The quiet moments are there as well and I loved the flashbacks and memories of the character interwoven between the main story.

4.5 ⭐️
I have such a difficult relationship with this book and that’s why it probably took me this long to finish it, and the fact that it’s so popular I had to wait forever to get it again from the library and then finally resorted to buying it.
The part that I enjoyed I really love, the parts I don’t care for are still pretty ok. I do feel like it would be better if the characters were a little older, say in their early 20’s like they are in the show. I feel like then the story would be a little more believable (but we don’t come to fantasy for believable do we?

This book is so funny, it’s been so long since I could hold down giggling while reading, but this book really did it.
It also has some surprisingly sweet and deep lines hidden between all the jokes and the ridiculous plot.

I love these!
Last summer when my cat went missing, I love red through the first 5 of the graphic novels, cause I couldn’t focus on anything else.
My cat came back, but I kept reading them as I do really enjoy the stories and the art. I liked the art style of the artist for the previous four books a bit more, but this one still fits with the theme of the books and looks great.
