Right now, I am currently reading the "Percy Jackson and the olympians."series by Rick Riordan, and I am on the third book. I love these books for three main reasons. One; it is hard to put this book down. Two; I can connect deeply to the main character, which is Percy Jackson. Three; Rick Riordan creates a fantasy world that is surprisingly realistic and believable.
Ussually, reading is boring to me, and often makes me sleepy, but not this series. In my opinion, Rick Riordan did a wonderful job creating a wonderful series of books that keep you on the edge of your seat. This is a good feature for a book, and especially for a series because it will always make the reader want more, and go buy the next book in the series.
The second reason I love this series is because the main character(percy jackson) and I have a lot in common. First of all, we share great and supportive mothers. In this series, Percy's mom helps him get through hard times, and so does mine. She also pushes him and encourages him whenever he is down, and once again, my mom does that too. Another way I connect to Percy is the fact that we are both very close to the friends we have, but we don't have manny friends. The last way Percy and I are connected is that we are both thirteen, which makes these books even more interesting to me.
The last reason I love this series is becaus the author, Rick Riordan, creates a fantasy world that is convincingly realistic. My two favorite book genres are realistic fiction, and fantasy, and this series combines the two. Even though I understand magic and ancient Greek gods don't exsist, these books make it fun to believe they do.
Percy Jackson and the olimpians is a great series of books that I recomend to someone of any age to read, if they have not already read it. In these addictive mind boggling books, Rick Riordan invites you to a new realistic magical world where anything can happen.
