So how was this book? Discuss!!! SPOILERS****

You've been warned :D


Erica (ericaevernight) Ok so was anyone making fun of Jason at some parts of the story? I just really don't like him, and his first line on his POV was "I fell asleep on the job" like wow.........really not feeling him right now.


Erica (ericaevernight) Annabeth was a little annoying too, she was judging Bob at every turn, kinda like she did tyson in the first books, just really mean.


Erica (ericaevernight) I'm gunna do a full rant. I wish they'd take us back to camp halfblood, so we can see how its doing. Its so focused on everyone else it'd just be really nice to go back home and see what's up.


Erica (ericaevernight) Oooooo leo better go back and get Calypso!! I think that's really awesome that they brought back so many characters, and Calypso can finally et her happy ending, and Leo won't be the odd one anymore cuz he's freaking awesome!!


Erica (ericaevernight) I just wanna say......Frank is really spicy right now!!!! No more baby faced Zhang! come on out buff linebacker hotty!! The best characters in this book have got to be Leo Hazel, and Frank they did a lot more things in the mortal world than everyone else, and they found themselves. The next book is gunna be soooooo awesome!!!

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) Oh my go yes. Sorry to come in in the middle of the dissection. I hated Jason's pout of view. I like when Frank had to go kill all those cows.


Erica (ericaevernight) Did anyone take that quiz on who's their godly parent? I'm a daughter of Hades!! @luckyducky hey there Sista sista!!


message 10: by Emilee (new) - added it

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) No. Where is that test!! I new to know!


Erica (ericaevernight) Jason was hilarious he like did a bad job everytime, falling asleep, coming a little too late, stalling with the wind god. It was cool that he was good with Nico being gay and all. Oh and by the way did anyone expect that!?!?! I was like what?!?


message 12: by Emilee (new) - added it

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) I flipped when I found out Nico was gay.


message 13: by Emilee (new) - added it

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) I hate Jason. He is just the roman Percy but no as awesome.


Erica (ericaevernight) I wonder why their all scared of him too, yeah he's the king of the dead but he's Nico, the kid who used to play mytho magic and has a crush on Percy Jackson.......at that part I was wearing a WTF look on my face. It was soooo unexpected.


Erica (ericaevernight) I think jasons gunna due in the next book. That'd be sooo sad for Piper, but.......I wouldn't be surprised.


Erica (ericaevernight) Yeah like aren't all of them good at fighting? Piper has Katroptis for christ sake she's just learning?! I think we re seeing some of her aphroditeness coming in.


message 17: by Emilee (new) - added it

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) Haha. Piper just annoys me. If Jason dies does anyone think she will end up with Leo?


Erica (ericaevernight) I'm glad percy came back. It was never the same without him. The craps gunna hit the fan when he finds out he's got a secret crush. I wanna read annabeths reaction sooo bad. Will she be mad? mean? understanding? idk and I can't wait!


Erica (ericaevernight) Leos gunna end up with Calypso!!!!!!!!! he has too!!! for MY sanity I swear I'm gunna be devastated if he doesn't.


Erica (ericaevernight) That part when percy killed ariadne I sighed and was just like "yeah........that's percy........sigh......."


Erica (ericaevernight) Jasons a popsicle?! hahahahahahahahahah lol


Erica (ericaevernight) I hope Octavian gets boobopped. He's really annoying


Erica (ericaevernight) Thalia has to come back!!


Erica (ericaevernight) And when piper shot those muffins at the monsters, and they just dodged and startted eating them.... i was shaking my head saying "why would u do that?!"


Erica (ericaevernight) That part when they tell Nyx she wasn't in the brochure was so funny!!


Erica (ericaevernight) But I didn't picture her like that, because I um.....read The House of Night series, and she was all nice and stuff....*cough* (no one like that series)


Erica (ericaevernight) Anyway!!! back to percy!!


Erica (ericaevernight) Does anyone not like the fact that there are so many different POVs?


message 29: by Emilee (new) - added it

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) Ummm I don't know. I like it sometimes but I switches to often.


Angela NICO D: it was a good twist but I've always shipped me and Nico together...so now...XD


Angela the POV was okay...but sometimes when there are cliffhangers, right at the end of a POV and then it gets switched to something else -.-


Erica (ericaevernight) yeah I don't like them that much.


message 33: by [deleted user] (new)

I didn't like all the POVs because I don't care about Frank, or Hazel, or Piper or Jason and whenever I would see a chapter by them, I rolled my eyes.
And Piper was barely in this at all. She had a few chapters in her POV and thats it. I'm not complaining (I don't like her) but she's not even an important character

Mika Wesley | 121 comments I just want to get back to percy and annabeth. One time I almost skipped franks chapters and read their chapters. I do not like frank


message 35: by Emilee (new) - added it

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) I love Percy and Annabeths pout of view. Franks I ok. Leo's is funny. I hate piper and Jason's though.


message 36: by Mika (new) - rated it 4 stars

Mika Wesley | 121 comments I want to hear Nico's point of view.


message 37: by Emilee (new) - added it

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) Oh that would be cool!!!!! Could anyone believe he was gay! I am NOT judging him! It just shocked me!


message 38: by Mika (new) - rated it 4 stars

Mika Wesley | 121 comments I know!!! I would have never guessed he liked percy. I knew he was hiding something when him and Jason were with Cupid


message 39: by Emilee (new) - added it

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) Yah!!!!!! I freaked out!!!!


message 40: by Mika (new) - rated it 4 stars

Mika Wesley | 121 comments Me too. That was the one time I was not happy to go back to percy and annabeth.


message 41: by Emilee (new) - added it

Emilee Grob (missshortshort) I know! I hate Jason's point of view but that was the only time I did not!


Hannah (hannahroboto) | 92 comments I don't hate Jason, but it is kind of laughable how unhelpful he is. He's supposed to be this powerful leader but 98% of the time when there's a battle going on, Jason is either knocked out or stuck in a trap or off doing god knows what while everyone else is fighting. It's cool he can fly and everything, and I loved how he was being such a good friend to Nico, but come on man, get your act together.


message 43: by Mika (new) - rated it 4 stars

Mika Wesley | 121 comments I know. I can not think of one time in house of hades that Jason made a big difference in the fight. Not one time he really helped.


julia (julianevergrowup) Honestly I didn't like the Percy and Annabeth chapters very much. They were disappointing. Tartarus was not at all what I expected. And Bob the Titan? Really?! It was like Tyson all over again. And when Percy dropped his sword I almost started crying. That's not Percy! It's like Rick Riordan is trying to give Percy flaws but Percy's only flaw is that he will do ANYTHING to save his friends. And Annabeth was annoying in this book. I didn't like her as much as I did in The Mark of Athena or the first five books. And Rick Riordan's writing in the third person is awful! There isn't enough dialogue and what dialogue there is is really awkward! And there isn't enough fighting. Like actual fighting. There was a new monster every other page but they didn't actually like fight the monster. There were no epic sword battles. It was Frank changing into a dolphin, Piper shooting food out of her cornucopia, and everyone TALKED their way out of bad situations. They're supposedly the best demigods ever and they don't even fight! WHAT?! The only part of this book that I LOVED was when Leo was on Calypso's island.


message 45: by Mika (new) - rated it 4 stars

Mika Wesley | 121 comments I loved that part. I can not believe he swore on the River Synx.


Charlotte O'dair Thorne Pedrad Valdez Lewis Steiner | 109 comments Leo and CALYPSO are a perfect couple. I now support Jason and Reyna. Piper is really annoying in this book, and frank is worthless and stupid as always.


message 47: by Mika (new) - rated it 4 stars

Mika Wesley | 121 comments I agree with char. Percy and annabeth are also a cute couple.


Charlotte O'dair Thorne Pedrad Valdez Lewis Steiner | 109 comments Piper is sooooo annoying with her cornucopia! I want to slap her! Jason could do way better, yet she's left him thinking he could do worse! The only person worse for him than piper is Ella the harpy! Even Kelli the empousai would be a better match than piper!


message 49: by Mika (new) - rated it 4 stars

Mika Wesley | 121 comments Piper is too perfect all the time. She has a cute powerful boyfriend. She is beautiful and her dad is a movie star.


Charlotte O'dair Thorne Pedrad Valdez Lewis Steiner | 109 comments Piper should die. The three people that death would make sense for; piper nico and frank. As in annoying piper and worthless frank. Nicks death would be sad and heroic like that of Selina bouregard and beckendorf
