This was a good book. It was wonderful to see some of the characters again. With Grover, I know there will be smiles and laughs. I used several tissues.

Really felt like I was enjoying the characters and their dynamics a lot more in this book, and that Lester was really starting to understand what it means to be a human. 

So glad to see Piper, Grover and Jason again in this book!!

I knew Jason died in this series but I didn’t realize it was this book, and it hurt so much :(

I think this book had more emotion, which the second book was lacking. I actually cared about what was happening and boy did it ruin me! I still seem to like everyone more than I do the main two characters of this series, but Meg grew on me in this book.
