Rick Riordan how I love thee!

I have to say I LOVE Rick Riordan! All of his books are so AWESOME! I have read all of the Percy Jackson books and they are amazing I was hooked the moment I started reading them, I would say I have read them a million times over again. If you haven't read The Lightning Thief because you thought it was just going to be a cheesy kids book, I am here to tell you kids book or not it was amazing. You are taken in to this world of gods and demigods and of course evil is right around the corner.It is so cool to see and read more in to detail about gods like Poseidon and Zeus and what happens to there children( they aren't suppose to have) with the challenges of growing up not sure whats going on with themselves but all of the children bound together to fight of crazy demon and all the things that go bump in the night. I think it was an amazing series and if you haven't read it for what ever reason I definitely think you should check it out!

Now when I found out there were more of the demigod series I was hesitant because when you love one character so much you don't really want to read the spin offs, the before or after of the books. But everyone I know has been pushing me to read them, so this week we have started the Heroes of Olympus series and let me tell you it is wonderful! Book one is The Lost Hero, I was very excited to read that we still had a bunch of the same characters for the Percy Jackson series. 

**SPOIL ALERT***

In this series you get new main guy Jason who has lost his memory and finds himself and two friends, who are also demigods, getting saved by our favorite warrior demigod Annabeth. They all make it to Camp Half Blood to find out new interesting things about our three new stars. Jason, Son of Zeus needs his memory back and to do that he must go save a goddess. Leo, son of Hephaestus is trying to understand everything that is going on and keeping a secretes of his own. and last but not least we have Piper, daughter of Aphrodite has a whole bunch of craziness to deal with. Her dad was kidnapped, creepy Giants are voices in her head telling to turn betray her new friends or her dad will die! AHHH! But of course I have saved the best for last when it comes to spoil alerts 
PERCY JACKSON IS MISSING! 
WHAAAAA I didn't even know what to do with myself. I was like NOOOOOOOOOO! If you haven't read the book you just have to dive in! The ended of course left me with a HUGE cliff hanger you know how I feel about those, but it had a great twist and now I have to get book two so I can see if we save Percy!!
