The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan
5.0
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶️(kiss)
Son of Neptune is one of the most serious books in the Percy Jackson universe. The trio is amazing. Percy, Hazel and Frank simply stole my heart for a second time. They are all selfless and beautifully flawed, it’s impossible to not love them from page one.
While I don’t really care that much for the Roman camp or their mythology compared to the Greek one it’s fun to read the difference. Camp Half-Blood is basically a hippie camp compared to Camp Jupiter. I don’t like how much trash talk the Romans do.
What I loved:
- I have missed Percy's sense of humor, it’s amazing
- Annabeth never giving up on Percy, no word of him for over 7 months and she is still searching for him
- Percy remembering Annabeth even after having a goddess take his memory, his love for her is literally that strong
- Percy - one of the greatest demigods of all time - who defeated the great titan Lord, who were offered to be turned into a GOD but turned it down for love is JELOUS of Frank's shape shifting powers?
- Hazel going from being appalled by the idea of being close to Frank, to loving him
- Frank accepting and never once doubting Hazel and her goodness
- Nico taking Hazel away from the underworld and giving her a new chance at life
Tropes
