1) The Hidden Oracle ★★★★
2) The Dark Prophecy ★★★★★

*4.5

Okay, this isn't quite a 5 but I still loved it. A list of Thoughts:

- Apollo's character development makes me want to cry (in a good way)
- Piper McLean could punch me in the face and I would thank her
- Rick made a really ballsy decision concerning a character death and I really respect him for that

Spoiler

Also, Jason was always my least favourite of the 7 so I was really only sad bc of Piper

- GROVER! HEDGE! MELLIE! ALL MY FAVES WERE BACK AND THEY WERE GREAT
- There was a slow 50 or so pages but god did it pick back up
- We got some really good Meg backstory that I loved, and some great character development too
- I need the fourth book asap.

Spoiler

Mostly because my wife Reyna is going to be a major character in it, and hopefully some Frank and Hazel
