4 hours 30 minutes - This is another great start to a mythological series by Rick Riordan. Not quite as good as the Percy Jackson books, but still has the same charm and adventure.

WOW. such a good start to a series.. several places had me baffled but I was obsessed with Sadie and Carter Kane... I usually don't like dual perspective books, but this one was nicely played out. The characters definitely had some defining moments which I loved!

I am only reading this series bc of the movies coming out and also bc I really want to read the shorts stories with Percy but god, at what cost? this took me more than a year to read and I read the last 50% in less than 24hrs but it was utter torture.
I normally enjoy Rick Riordan but this book was not it...I do not know if I will be able to read the other two book and I really want to pick up Magnus Chase after but is it even worth it? I do not know.
The Anubis/Sadie shit made me uncomfortable af, was it only me? idk, he is like a thousand years old and she is like twelve, also I do not like how the author portrays girls or how he narrates from their pov (even in third person) I did not like how he portrayed Annabeth in heroes of olympus...maybe that's just me, right?
whatever, I am off to reading the poppy war, what a contrast!
'kay, I'm out
