Percy Jackson : The Sea of Monster 
 The hero is back!! After a year in normal world, Percy was going back to Camp Half-Blood! But...he almost completed his whole year at the school and broke his record! (He changed a school every year...) But why doesn't he have any trouble a school? Like Annabeth, who seems to attract every monster to her school... 
 This book was as great as the first one (Although I personally prefer the first one...what do you think?) Yet what I like about this book is we can not only read about Percy's adventure, but also Clarisse played an important part! You see...a rescue doesn't mean you have to do all the things by yourselves or something like that. Besides, Percy was totally a jerk in Tantalus's eyes. Everybody, I believe even Percy himself think heroes should be treat like...some body. But then Chiron left, everything changed. Percy was treated like a trouble maker in the camp, let me be clear: both Percy and Annabeth. How awful! But even I hate the way they were treated; it was truly a fun thing to see heroes weren't so popular any more. Tantalus was just like blind or being prejudiced! (Perhaps too hungry?) He basically blamed Percy for every single thing. Hahaha! And thanks him for that, Percy and Annabeth went out for another quest. Lucky for us, we got to see another adventure! Unfortunately, no Grover... we know he went out to find Pan. But that's alright, we got Tyson! He was a strange boy who went to Percy's normal school by help, and he went to Camp Half-Blood in an accident, in order to save Percy from the fire bull? (or the exact name of it...whatever~). In the camp, he found out who he was, and who his parents were. Without a doubt, as you can guess...a special connection with Percy! We got another son of Poseidon! However, his wasn't a demigod, he was a Cyclops! Who was not really the most popular guy... he left the quest with Percy and was actually a great help to Percy and Annabeth. But that'll take a long time until they realize...since Annabeth had extremely bad memory about Cyclops. If I gave The Lightning Thief 4.5 stars, The Sea of Monster can get 4 stars! I can't tell you why I delete the 0.5 star, just compared to the first book... I think The Lightning is more entertaining? And it makes me fall in love with the whole series, so that deserves another 0.5 star. But don't get me wrong, The Sea of Monster is still a wonderful book that all ages can enjoy and learn from it. We can once again read Percy's bravely, Annabeth's wisdom. (Apparently, Annabeth will always be the one with brain...) and...a satyr wearing wedding gown!!! (Read it by yourselves~) Go and read the book if you haven't done it!
