Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes

Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes

By Rick Riordan

A hero. A person, typically a man, who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. In my book, Percy Jackson’s greek heroes (by Rick Riordan) it is all about the heroes in greek mythology. I have read three of the stories in this book, but for the sake of simplicity, I will be focusing on one, the story of Perseus. There are three major settings in this story, the kingdom of Argos, Seriphos, and the gorgons cave, the time in this story is anytime BC. The protagonist in this story is Perseus, a very strong child with a difficult task at hand. The antagonist in this story is Polydectes, a king that wants Perseus’ mom as his wife. The first conflict is when Polydectes tries to pursue Perseus’ mom. The second conflict is when Perseus was given the task to bring the head of medusa back to Polydectes. The turning point in this book is when Perseus arrives at the mouth of the Gorgon’s cave, sword in hand.This book is great because it has the action of the original greek myths, but the wittiness that Rick Riordan has always put in his books. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes mythology.

Legacy (8) (Keeper of the Lost Cities)

Legacy (8) (Keeper of the Lost Cities)

By Shannon Messenger

I love this book!! I gotta admit, I was NOT impressed that Sophie and Fitz drifted away from their romantic relationship at the end, but Shannon Messenger did such a good job writing this that I found myself blaming Sophie & Fitz, not her!!! This was a truly incredible book. It went the same as the others in the series, in the sense that all that happened was planning sneak attacks on the Neverseen, the Neverseen getting away, Sophie blaming herself, planning another sneak attack, etc. But honestly, that doesn't make me like the book less. The characters are introduced so well that I really felt like I was in the book (I know, everyone says that, but honestly this series was one of the only ones that I ACTUALLY felt like that) and the way that Sophie & Fitz interact, the way we all know Keefe looks at Sophie, and even Dex and Biana (yes, I caught that!! Love it!!) seems almost like a stereotypical teenage life, except it's not. I can't explain it, but it is so unique and heartwarming that I could not put the book down. I feel bad for her, but I don't blame Sophie for not keeping up with Fitz. She has SO MANY other things going on, but they are a good couple because even though Sophie feels bad about it, Fitz understands. He is there for her as much as possible, whether it's for a shoulder to lean on or somebody to yell at. I am pretty bummed that she was unmatchable, and that Fitz doesn't understand why she won't continue the search for he biological dad. It's also pretty upsetting that she told Keefe first, and not her boyfriend... especially knowing that Keefe had way more going on with his parents and the Neverseen than Fitz did and she still chose to lean on him when she found out. I am so excited to see what book 8.5 will bring!! It's coming out next week!!! I'll be cheering for Fitzphie no matter what happens!!!

The Adventures of Captain Underpants (Captain Underpants #1)

The Adventures of Captain Underpants (Captain Underpants #1)

By Dav Pilkey

There's these two kids named George and Harold. They're best friends and they like to play pranks on people. They also write and sell this comic book called Captain Underpants. One day, they play a huge prank and get caught by their school principal who hates them. The principal blackmails them and they have to do whatever he says. So they buy this hypnotizing ring. Then they hypnotize him, so he'll do whatever they say. They accidently hypnotize him into thing he's Captain Underpants, so then they go off to find him. That's as far as a I got. What I though of it: This book was so unbelievable boring and poorly written, I couldn't stand it. I didn't even make it half-way through the book. I was physically incapable of continuing. The characters were extremely flat. They had no personalities what so ever. I'm guessing I was supposed to like George and Harold, though I really wasn't given a reason to. I'm guessing I was supposed to dislike the principal. I really didn't dislike him anymore than George and Harold. They said he was mean and he didn't like smile and laughter, but that was about the only reason I could think of to dislike him. He did punish George and Harold, but that's not a reason to dislike him. They deserved it. He didn't use the proper method, but still... The illustrations were extremely creepy. If this book was supposed to be funny, it failed miserably. There was nothing even remotely funny about it. Overall, this I couldn't bring myself to finish this book, but what I did manage to read was horrendous.
