Despite being my favorite book series as a kid, I’ve been quite iffy during this re-read. I’ve found the first two books to be genuinely awful, borderline unenjoyable.
This, however, was definitely a step in the right direction. A really interesting new set of characters are introduced to the story and puts Percy on an accelerated track to true leadership and personal growth.
Not to be a negative nelly, but I’m beginning to wonder if my dislike of the book is tied to the narrator… Very much dislike the artistic choices they made for voices, accents, and annunciation.

Did a monologue off of a Biff scene but ended up reading the rest of the play to get some more context. Definitely a well written play for the time and there's some clear relevance even after all these years, even if it sways into “goofy” territory for theatrical reasons.

Thought provoking and innovative! I think the twist at the end left me with some pause, but overall-- An incredible piece on resiliency and the power of code-switching.
