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 :(

This was actually my first read-through of this book, despite reading the second one two or three times already. These books are just getting more and more intense and complicated as details from all the series are at play together. 

This book was excellent. It was sad, but also handled so well. While I wish this part of the series didn't exist, it does. To be honest this isn't something I expected which makes it hit all the harder but also really highlights the severity in a way that otherwise just couldn't be captured.  I just hope that Apollo makes the most of their position in the next book.

This series gets better from book to book. I feel like this is the most mature one so far and
and at times it turns unexpectedly gutwrenchingly sad.
