This is a great first post, Rose! What a fresh and insightful take. I didn't read Percy Jackson growing up, and now I feel I missed out! See you at WoP and look forward to reading more.

Thank you Gairik! Percy Jackson was a wonderful series but be aware it's quite strongly Middle Grade. I wouldn't necessarily recommend picking it up as an adult, I got bored on my recent re-read. But if you have children in your life that's the perfect bedtime story!

“Winning the battle is only the first step — what happens after the victory is what really counts.” LOVE this post, Rose! I dislike HP for other reasons and love PJO, but there are so many differences between the two which clearly over time show that PJO is the better childhood hero. Beyond the entertainment when we read the book, HP doesn’t hold much.
