discussion
Could someone please tell me why everyone is obsessed with these books?
Fill out the format, then I'll approve

i hate them"
Cool story bro

ok 1st of all, if i couldve i wouldve taken alegebra 1 in 7th grade, 2nd what does translating tht have to do with math, and 3rd u must not be good at alegebra since u cant even spell it right!



yeah but what i mean is there what you want to be, the kind of bettter people.

My thoughts exactly..............
Lol, i love these books, but i see what your saying, its not exactly complicated to read, and the characters dohnt have enough flaws. Still, i think they are fun reads

I really love the Percy Jackson series. It's easy to read, fun, funny, and it moves forward quickly rather than slowing the reader down with useless information.
Percy Jackson all the way!

Lol, I just came across it and I figured I'd drop in."
Trust me there's a fair amount of different characters here.
1. There are the die hard Percy Jackson fans who try to understand why I don't like this book-and we agree about some points.
2. There are the Percy Jackson fans who think I'm a jerk for posting my opinion and intend on telling me so.
3. Then there are the people who think the series is good.....but not great.
4. Next there are people who have no idea what we are talking about.
5. FInally, there are people who agree with me.
So there you go:D

I don't know, I guess it just wasn't my series.
I don't think the characters were really developed that much.

I mostly agree with you. Good point.

Yes, Yes! Thank you!
Sheesh, some people these days.

Yeah I liked the concept but It seemed like it could have been so much better than what he had written.
hay ada will you fill me in on whats happining i do not get what you guys are talking about
Im honestly one on the list, i love these books. But then again, i see your points, or at least, i attempt to. I do get that the characters arnt the best, but i always end up rooting for them XD
Lol, brandon XD
I dont think percy is relateable, but entertaining enough for me to keep reading :)

I think percy should have had something wrong, a flaw of some kind. I like the side characters better than the main ones in the series
He was always the hero that came to the rescue, which got on my nerves. I mean can he not be loyal for once? Or have someone else save the person? Yeah, i dont like percy much. His 'flaw' was being loyal. I mean, how can you even count that as a flaw?
Lol, and yet i rate the book 5 stars XD
Lol, and yet i rate the book 5 stars XD
I mean, i love the books, but there are some changes i wouldmake, as you just saw XD
who cares what you read i read grusome books

I had written a really mean but quite ingenious comeback, but once I posted it I deleted it.
I guess that just proves a whole lot of something.

Why thank you. I wonder where that idea came from.

I totally loved it! Rich riordan does a great job and is an awesome writer,
he can easily include Greek mythology in the picture along with a bit of
adventure, romance, and humor.
