DAY 4- THE TITAN'S CURSE

Ahhh, The Titan's Curse. Very high on my lists of favorites! Maybe because of Nico's introduction, maybe because of my fierce love of Zoe Nightshade, maybe because Percy finally figures out he has feelings for Annabeth, maybe because Thalia is THALIA, maybe for the plot, maybe for...This could go on a while. I freaking love this book! Let's get started!


- Lol Percy needs his mom to drive him into battle

- Excuse me Sally but I would like to hear about Percy's embarrassing childhood stories why do Annabeth and Thalia get all the fun???

- I want a back story on how Percy and Thalia actually ended up becoming friends is that too much to ask for ugh

- Never forget that Annabeth is definitely Sally's favorite xD

- Percy stop acting like you're not a mama's boy everyone knows by now this is the third book

- I'M STILL FAILING TO UNDERSTAND WHY THE MANTICORE HAS A FRENCH ACCENT

- Annabeth and Thalia hug Grover. Percy high fives him to affirm his masculinity.

-"Well?" Annabeth said.
"Um, who should I ask?"
She punched me in the gut. "ME, Seaweed Brain."
"Oh. Oh, right."
I AM IN TEARS THIS OTP IS FLAWLESS OKAY.

- "I put one hand on Annabeth's hip, and she clasped my other hand like she was about to judo throw me."
 * Laughs about this* *Thinks about their reunion in Mark of Athena* *Vividly remembers Annabeth judo flipping Percy* *GIGGLES MADLY UNTIL I PASS OUT*

-And here we go, Percy "Ball-is-life" Jackson starts talking about basketball again xD

- "Don't talk to my sister that way!" Nico said. His voice quivered, but I was impressed that he had the guts to say anything at all"
 I just
 I just
 BABY NICO.
 I THOUGHT I WAS PREPARED FOR YOU BABY NICO.
 I THOUGHT I COULD HANDLE IT.
 AND YET I'M SOBBING.

- "They're not dolls! They're figurines! And you can take your great army and-" TEN YEAR OLD NICO DI ANGELO WAS ABOUT TO TELL A MANTICORE TO SHOVE AN ARMY UP HIS ASS. THIS KID HAS BEEN HARDCORE RADICAL SINCE DAY ONE I'M IN TEARS FROM LAUGHTER.

- Nerdy, hyper baby Nico is the most important thing ever and I need him back desperately

- "Are you really the son of Poseidon?"
"Well, yeah."
"Can you surf really well, then?"
I looked at Grover, who was trying hard not to laugh.
"Jeez, Nico," I said. "I've never really tried."
He went on asking questions. Did I fight a lot with Thalia, since she was the daughter of Zeus? (I didn't answer that one.) If Annabeth's mother was Athena, the goddess of wisdom, then why didn't Annabeth know better than to fall off a cliff? (I tried not to strangle Nico for asking that one.) Was Annabeth my girlfriend? (At this point, I was ready to stick the kid in a meat-flavored sack and throw him to the wolves."

 Conceal.
 Don't feel.
 DON'T LET THEM KNOW.

  1. I can almost hear Cupid laughing in his sadistic way in the background at "Was Annabeth my girlfriend?" Cupid has been running this show since the third book.
