I am sooooo excited. I like the Heroes of Olympus series a little bit more then PJ--I like the third person point of view a little bit more and Jason, Piper and Leo are definitely more interesting then Percy. I don't know, that's just what I think. The Kane Chronicles were kind of cool--The Serpant's Shadow was a really good ending. But the HoO I think is my favorite series yet. I can't wait to see how Annabeth is and the meeting of the two camps. Tension...

Oops.  I found out when it was coming out about two months ago, so my memory might be fuzzy.  It's at my school book fair now, so as soon as I get stinking Lirael out of the way, and maybe finish Insurgent, ON TO OLYMPUS!!!!!!!!

WEDNESDAY?!  It's coming out on stinkin' Wednesday?!  Happy dance!  

 

Piper used to be one of my favorite characters, then he introduced Hazel.  Now I'm not so sure.  I just wish I had charm speak.  I would be able to get of doing homework soooo easily.

I finished it this morning. It was really good, but I hate cliffhangers, when you have to wait a year to find out what happens. Thanks a lot, Rick Riordan!

***SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!***

I mean come on Percy and Annabeth just fell into Tartarus, and we have to wait another year! Also, I knew Leo would be related to Sammy! He's his great-grandson!!!

***SPOILER ENDS****

The next book is called The House of Hades.

My friend and I are racing to see who can finish it first.  I got it a day later and as of Math class, I'm ten pages ahead.  That was sixty pages ago.  He he.

I can't believe I haven't been able to read it yet!!!

My sister still has it and even after she sends it it will be another four or five days before it gets here. Waiting just gets harder and harder.

So, those who have finished reading #3 do you have a new favorite character?

SQUEEEEE!!!!! The Mark of Athena just came in the mail, or rather I just got it from the mailbox having neglected to get the mail yesterday. Now I must try and beat the thirty hours it took my sister after she got it. That may seem like it would be easy to beat, but there is the fact that I can't ignore any of the other things I have to do, mainly school. So I don't believe I will be sleeping much tonight.

I KNOW.

My friend and I had a race to see who could finish it first. He got the book a day earlier, but I beat him by about five days anyway.

*facepalm*

I don't waaant to wait a year. Why do all of these books have to be so darn suspenseful? Why can't they have nice conclusive endings like in Percy Jackson and the Olympians?

Aaaagggh *bangs head on keyboard*   n n n      h y

OH MY GOSH, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO WAIT A WHOLE FREAKIN YEAR TO SEE IF...um, well, I don't want to spoil it, so I'll just say... things happen with Annabeth and Percy. GAHHH! It's like waiting for catching fire!!! These people hate me!

I wonder who Leo's gonna end up with girlfriend-wise....

Leo might end up with Bianca DiAngelo.  Well, there's the whole going into Tartarus thing happening.  So *spoiler* Percy and Annabeth might find her *spoiler ends*.  This is my awful analysis of Leo's girlfriend possibilities.
