The Sea of Monsters

Quick read, just like there first book. Content is somewhat better, and the ending was surprising!

The second book from the Percy Jackson series was pretty good too. I feel kinda bad I didn't read it sooner like I read the first book over a year ago and only the 2nd just now? When will I be able to finish this series then start the Last Olympian??? Anyways, I am pretty satisfied with the ending and everything. I'd say Percy can be a jerk and s fool sometimes but he has a good heart, I like it. I find it cool that Rick Riordan made all the half-bloods ADHD and dyslexic like there are not many (if at all) fantasy books with neurodivergent characters as heroes. I also like that even though they are all ADHD they're not the same and are very diverse. I knew that thing, in the end, is gonna happen and I'm excited! I loved Tyson's character and that Percy has Spoilera half-brother now, that is very cool, and Tyson is soo adorable! I also really like Annabeth and her wisdom even though she can sometimes be unwise, which is good. 1-dimensional characters are boring anyway. I can see why Rick Riordan has soo many fans, I mean who doesn't like mythology??? I sure do, especially if they're kinda like me, lol. I mean if I was a half-blood who's kid would I be? Anyways I recommend it for fans of the first PJ book and those who read only The Last Olympian books and those who want to start a new book series but aren't so sure which one. It has it all!

The sequel follows up the original well, even if Tyson makes the tone feel slightly more childish. Older readers may have more trouble staying engaged with this one.
