The Hidden Oracle!
Thanks to everyone who came to our launch event in Boston on Tuesday, May 3! We had a sold-out crowd and I loved hearing your questions and sharing your enthusiasm. And thanks to everyone on social media who has already responded to the new series with such love and appreciation. I’ve got the best readers in the world! It’s always a relief to me when I hear that I met your expectations in a new volume.
If you haven’t picked up your copy of The Hidden Oracle yet, it is now available anywhere books are sold in the U.S., Canada and the U.K. I’m not sure about the other markets. I don’t get that info. But if it’s not yet available where you live, I’m sure the publishers are working hard to get it into your hands as soon as possible!
And if you missed the usual “Coming in 2017” at the end of The Hidden Oracle, I did too! Here is the title of book two, which will be here next October:
Also the Rick Riordan website has just had a facelift. Check it out and let me know what you think!
The post The Hidden Oracle! appeared first on Rick Riordan.
But no boys will ever be as good our fictional guys (Percy, Leo,Nico, Carter, Walt, and Magnus to name a few). But in some ways they are better because you can actually talk to them and they can listen to you and talk back.
But no guys will be perfect like our guys. I have spent almost 16 years figuring that out.

Nothing much only waiting for my birthday which is on saturday. Only a few, have you read Cinder its a good book.
Cinder is actually on my to read list. But to be honest I also have a friend who is a boy. That just made my day worse, because they think I and him would be a cute couple. But most in 10 grade are annoying.
I'm entering my pets into this competition could you guys vote? I have only added this one so far: https://www.kingpet.com/pets/47572268...
I think the same sometimes but still when it is 29th January here it is still the same date in other countries. Ehh I don't think I am so sure about that

But the problem is now I actually do like him and I am pretty sure he still likes me but neither of us want to admit it to the other. It has pretty much ruined the great relationship we had last year, it is just so awkward to talk to the other. It feels planned now instead of spontaneous. So word of warning, DON'T LET ANYBODY SHIP YOU WITH YOUR GUY FRIEND!!! I also have a lot of other horror stories of shipping. It's something better left alone.

Better than Harry Potter? I don't think that's possible.
I Know the feeling. I feel to awkward to talk with my guy friend Mattias. For a while I liked him more than just a friend. We got along so well. He is actually my first guy friend that I could talk with so well. But everything faded when I began in 10.grade.
I Don't actually think he like me back. But some from another school said that too not only my friend. He is Norwegian I was only born in Norway but my culture is from China.

Hey no one had been on here for like a week that's unusual
Well I actually had a busy week with high school math test. We also had culture week (if I translate from Norwegian to English) . I know it is unusual I always comment here if I had time.
Same. I've been SWAMPED this past week. I check in almost everyday though and when I saw no one had posted I thought it was odd.
Same, I have been really busy, and being busy makes me to read slow.
Actually I can finish many books if I just have time, but seems like that never going to happened for a while.

I was born in Pakistan, but came here when I was like 6 months old, so yeah.
Btw we have a lot from Pakistan in my class. But Chinese student only me and my friend. And the wired thing is that they only bully Chinese girls. I Have been in the same school in like 9 years soon 10. And the worst is to have worst first 7 years.

Whoa I just woke up and saw a gazillion goodreads notifications on my phone
My first thought was to look it up online for ideas and it came up with a bunch of websites that you needed an account for. Guess how old you have to be to make an account? 13!!! And I have lied about my age on a few services (such as goodreads) but I would prefer to leave the rest until I am 13.

I like your new profile pic. It's really cute. I don't have too many cute pictures of myself until recently.

One actually has a good number of devoted followers which is pretty cool.
trust me i got lucky....its like the first time in forever my face is free from acne breakouts so i took advantage and took a quick pic. thanks though! but i'll be changing it around so it doesn't get boring

for b-day ideas i would think of diffrent categories. for example, if your having a party whos going to be there? friends, family, or a little bit of both?
or if not have a party would you go a certain place you like or do something?
Do a book related theme party are you going to go all potterhead crazy and make your house look like hogwarts? or you can make your backyard look like camp half-blood?
honestly whatever make you feel like you never want the day to end. its not every day someone turns into a teenager!

It looked normal on the outside and bright blue on the inside it was so cool!
I always had a simple birthday celebration. If it was me I would have a book themed celebration.
Make it your best birthday party ever so you would never forget it in your life.

I think you would get a lot of gifts too. :P

I kind of want people to just give me cash but they don't usually listen. Especially my Yaya (Greek for Grandma) always insists on buying me clothes and sure some of them are nice but some of them are so ugly! Like this pink frilly jumper she got me for my 13th.

Oh my... jumpers are forever scarred for me as I had to wear it as a Catholic school student until I was 13! It was ugly green plaid and it DID NOT look good on me. :|
Yeah. I've got my big 16 in a month. Thank goodness I'm not doing a big party b/c I am WAY too busy for that. LOL! Just gonna host a dinner at my place and then go to see Moana in theaters as
I am not saying that the boys at my school are perfect. Some of them are jerks. But if you wanna meet semi-decent, Christian guys, classical education schools are the place to do it. :)
