The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #1)
by
Who knew middle school books could make me gush and squeal like a 12-year old. I loves!!!
Can we just appreciate how much FAN ART there is in this fandom???!!!??? ٩(^ᴗ^)۶
“If you’re reading this because you think you might be one, my advice is: close this book right now. Believe whatever lie your mom or dad told you about your birth, and try to lead a normal life.
This book is informative, interesting, funny, charming, it’s just all of the above and I’m already trash.
The Lightening Thief, is the tale of Perseus Jackson, a young boy who found out he’s a half-blood in a very hilarious manner. Due to his birthright, Percy is expected to embark on quests and save the world from impending war.
Now it’s not just Percy that’s a sweet darling child who’s sassy and brave and courageous, it’s also his comrades, Annabeth (GIMME MORE PERCABETH PELASE) and Grover, his peculiar little friend.
The trio of this group is so wonderfully entertaining to read about it. I didn’t think I would LOVE a middle school book as much as I loved this one but I was thoroughly entertained the entire way!
I’m so enthralled with the setting of Camp Half-Blood, like can we get an entire book just set there?? It’s so different from anything else I’ve read.
Fetus May really missed out on good reading material. Smh.
So, I’m sure everyone has already read this series and they’re rolling their eyes at my basicness but I’M SO EXCITED TO CONTINUE THIS SERIES!!!
“If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself.”
Okay, stay tuned cause I’m gonna be back for more of this Percy kid.
4.5 stars!!

Now you may be thinking, "May, how on earth did you manage to pass middle school without reading these books? You must have had a terrible childhood," and to which I would respond, "Yes, yes, in the book world, it sure seems that way." .-.

I can't believe you just now picked this masterpiece? A gift from the gods himself? I mean, I wouldn't even be where I am today if I didn't have Percy Jackson guiding me to the light. And my baby Luke Castellan who I will forever love and protect and defend. Whatever, you've read it now and that's all that matters.
