The Titan's Curse is a very enjoyable read. I like the fact that it changes from the usual summer beginning to winter and we have some new and interesting character additions. 
 As always, Percy is nice but I did not find this book as funny as the first one. As the story progresses the tone becomes darker. Percy and his friends begin to understand how serious matters got and begin to prepare for the big clash with the evil. 
 The new characters we get in this book and the relationships that change and progress are super interesting and fun. 
 I especially liked how Percy begins to understand his feelings and how he manages to become friends with people very different from him. 
 We also get new mythical creatures or monsters and a closer look on the gods of Olympus. 
 I can definitely recommend this book and looking forward to reading the next one.
