The Sun and the Star

This story was sweet. There’s really no other way for me to describe it.
Riordan‘s books are clearly written for a younger audience, which I‘m not a part of anymore, and it shows in the writing and dialogues which felt very� childlike. That‘s not a bad thing, of course, it just means that I‘m not the right age anymore for these kind of books.
And if I‘m honest, I solely bought it for the nostalgia anyways.
Will and Nico made a perfect team, and I‘m glad they got their own story without any of the other characters taking the attention off of them.
I probably won‘t be coming back for a reread, but The Sun and The Star has earned its spot on my shelf, where it will always remind me of my childhood and early teens where I got to escape in an amazing world of gods and monsters and heroes. I‘m forever grateful for that.

YESSSSS! It was published last year but I didn't read it yet. Now's the time, though!
