I read it on June or July and I liked it! This just reminded me I need to continue the series.
Anyway, the book is pretty good, funny and with an awesome plot twist.

I am half way through this book. I have never read any Greek mythology in my life but I am trying to be more open minded and exploring new genres. It is great! I can tell I will want to read the whole series.

The Percy Jackson series is my favorite series of all time. I have read this book a million times and am going to read it again with you all, if that's okay?

I love the Percy Jackson series. The action in the novel makes me want to read all day and night. I also love the second series, The Heroes Olympus. Again the books in the series make me want to read them all day and all night. (If I could).

I finished it a few days ago and really enjoyed it. I often like to watch the movie adaptations afterwards. I hear this one is not so good. Thoughts?

[Andrea]

The problem with the movie is that they changed a lot of things from the book, starting from the age in the characters. But if you see the movie without thinking about the book you may find it good.

Yep. The Movie was a horrible, but the book was amazing. I suggest you read the book then watch the movie, then you can see how different the movie is to the book.

I read half of the book and then watched the movie, granted I was younger. I liked the ending of the movie, but then once I had finished to book I realized how different the two were. I would highly recommend reading the book before watching the movie.
