The final book in the PJO series definitely doesn't disappoint! I loved all of their stories and points of views, and the ending was amazing. I love how they finally gave Nico a love interest, someone who is completely opposite from him! You should definitely read the last book if you like Percy Jackson!Almost 7 years agomags added a book review.
The first book in the Percy Jackson series got me started in a journey for reading all the way back in 2nd grade! Ever since then, I've always avidly bought each new PJO book and read it. This book definitely starts the adventure nicely, where you meet Percy, Annabeth, and Grove. They go on a quest to retrieve a lightning bolt that Percy is accused of stealing. There are definitely a few plot twists that will make you doubt yourself. This book is amazing, everybody should read it.Almost 7 years agomags added a book review.
Magnus Chase is actually the cousin of Annabeth from the PJO series. His father is a Norse god, which draws him into the Norse world. Magnus dies in the first chapter of the book, but that isn't the end of his story. He ends up in the Norse "heaven" and he meets many friends. I love how this book is inclusive of many different cultures, including the Arabic one. While this book isn't as great as Percy Jackson, you should definitely read it!Almost 7 years agomags added a book review.
House of Hades is the 4th book in the Heroes of Olympus series. More adventures await Percy and Annabeth, as well as the rest of the Argo crew. While Percy and Annabeth are stuck in Tartarus, they find some old friends down there. Up above on the Argo, Jason and Nico have a few adventures of their own, leading to a startling discovery about Nico. There are so many other things in this great book that you'll just have to read to find out!Almost 7 years agomags added a book review.
This book is definitely a classic. I read it with my class in 5th grade and it was very mind-blowing. With just enough science and magic to keep you hooked, this book really sticks with you. I will admit that it was a bit confusing, but the characters are all so loveable. I love the three witches and all the other characters a lot! Everybody has got to read this book at some point in their life!Almost 7 years agomags added a book review.
I love fairytale twists, and this is probably my most favorite book with one! It is set in a futuristic world, where Cinder is a cyborg who works for her evil stepmother and stepsister. Soon, she meets the crown prince of China, Prince Kai, which sets her off on a thrilling adventure. Not only that, but there is a disease devastating the entire world and moon people who are very evil. There are many twists and turns that you won't be able to foresee, which makes this book such a great read!Almost 7 years agomags added a book review.
Nikki should finally almost have her perfect life, since her mortal enemy MacKenzie has finally left! She even gets to hang out with Brandon more now that MacKenzie isn't there to ruin it. Soon, she runs into more drama however, when she has to hide puppies from her parents while taking care of them. This turns out to be difficult, of course. I highly recommend this book as a really cute read for middle schoolers, as you can really relate to Nikki!Almost 7 years ago
