I don't feel like this added anything to the overall series. Unless you're a mega completionist like I am, feel free to skip this one in the series.
I had the best time reading this with my best friend, We stayed up until 2 am to finish it and we are so excited for book two. I loved the world building and I am so excited to see more of it!!
For some reason I think that this is my favorite book in the Twilight series so far, I enjoyed the story progression, though there were several points in the book where I visibly cringed.
I love Victoria's writing. This is the second book by her that I have read and I loved it just as much as the other one!
As always, I had a blast reading this book and found myself looking at the characters this time. I was diagnosed with ADHD at 20 but I can still see a lot of similarities between 12-year-old me and 12-year-old Percy Jackson. If I'm being totally honest I think I still see some of him in my almost 22-year-old self. Revisiting Rick's world is always a wonderful treat and I look forward to reading book 2.
I thought that this book was kind of meh. While I enjoyed the writing style, I felt there was a lack of plot. But I am intrigued enough to continue with the series with my book club, and I am hoping this book was just a flop. I read it a long time ago and didn't remember much that happened, but I don't remember feeling bored like I did this time. I think the next few books in the series will pick up the pace and have more action which I am really looking forward to.
