How I Got It: Gift
These have been staring at me from my shelf and I figured
it was about time to read them. I think I might like this more than the Percy
Jackson books. The world is expanding and I really like these characters.
I really like being able to go between different POVs.
There’s more diversity in thought and perspective. Actually, there’s a decent
amount of diversity in general. Piper is probably my favorite character and I
most connected to her. Leo is my least favorite of the three because he gets a
little mopey. But I do still like him a lot.
Like I already said, the plot is growing. I wish a little
more was revealed, but I can respect that this is the first in a five book
series, so mysteries are needed. And I am curious to see where it goes.
I have one spoilery thing.
Honestly, I don’t know if this counts as a spoiler, but
better safe than sorry.
I really like that Hera is a good guy. Or as good as a
god can be. She tends to get screwed in a lot of stories, so this is a nice
departure and I hope it sticks around.
Now, I have an internal struggle. I want to keep reading,
but I know the next book isn’t about these characters. I’m sure I’ll grow o
love the new characters, but it makes me sad to leave these ones behind-even
for just one book.
Thanks for reading!
