Though this book felt a bit below my age group, that's because it is. Still, returning to the PJO world that I haven't touched since I was like 13 is nice. The books are still as cheesy as ever, it seems. I'm excited to incrementally go back and see what I've missed. This book itself was cute, though sometimes written a bit fanfic-y, and definitely with humor from about 10yrs back with occasional jokes about current things. These books are going to become incredibly dated but for now they're a very fun 460ish pages that I did have a fun time reading - I was smiling by the end.
