The Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan
4.0
adventurous funny lighthearted fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

A second book that most definitely does not suffer from second book syndrome. Jumping back in with Percy and the crew as they attempt to revive the magical borders surrounding Half-Blood Camp was exciting, fast-paced, and had me wanting to read the third in the series immediately after finishing this one. The mythology references, reformatted into modern-society were hilarious (honestly the Bermuda Triangle makes complete sense) and I found myself having to look-up a couple of names to brush up on my Greek mythology, which I always love. 

This was a blast and it only made me more excited to continue the series. 

And of course - Tyson has my whole heart and
the brotherly-relationship development that we got to experience with him and Percy was amazing. I so hope we get to see him again soon!
