The Lightning Thief

I'm not very good at this so I'll keep it brief. Like some kind of idiot, I watched the movie long before I read the book. As a matter of fact, I still haven't finished the books because of a particular event that happens in the fifth one...I digress.

ahem

Anyhow, this is a book that I'd happily read again, hence the 5 stars. My initial reaction to the book was ‘I'VE BEEN LIED TO!' because I thought the first movie was good and was content with the information I had received from the movie and the fandom. But then I read the book. It is far better. I particularly like the titles of the chapters and Percy's little quirks. And Luke. Luke is my baby.

TL;DR: I watched the movie first, the book is better, shame on me.
